Scott,
1. The proper number of bytes for the file is 100. This shows in the
WRKLNK option 8 on the i. The file consists of 2 records each 50 bytes.

2. In Windows (XP Pro) when I view the list of files on the mapped drive,
it shows 1K.
When I double click on the file name, nothing happens. The file does
not open and no error is issued.

3. When viewing the properties in Windows, the file shows as 0 bytes.


I am using the IFSIO_H copy book from your book, although it may be an
older copy as I had to modify the Open prototype to add the fifth parm
required for O_TEXT_CREAT.

The code I use for the Open of the file is shown in my original post.

Thanks,

Thanks,

Does IFS_File_Name need to be varying length, so you don't pass up blanks
as part of the file name?

Subject: Help creating file on IFS

All,
I have a program that is attempting to create a file on the IFS.
I am using the IFSIO_H copybook from Scotts IFS book for the prototypes.
The snippet of code below is failing on the open.
<snip>

D IFS_File_Name S 50A

D FileDs S 10I 0

D RC S 10I 0

D Bytes_Loaded S 10I 0

D Msg S 256A Based(p_Msg)

D Test_Data S 1350A

D

// Prototypes for IFS Processing

/Copy QCopyBks,IFSIO_H

/copy QCopyBks,ERRNO_H

/Free

Test_Data = '123456179 THIS IS A TEST ITEM,213123434 THIS IS ANOTHER';

// Create file on IFS

IFS_File_Name = '/excel/xml/I' +

'12456' +

'_' +

'0' +

'.csv';

FileDs = Open(IFS_File_Name // Path & File Nmae

: O_CREAT + // Create File

O_WRONLY + // Write Only

O_CCSID + // Use Code Page

O_TEXTDATA + // Text Data

O_TEXT_CREAT // Create File

: S_IRWXU // Owner has ALL Auth

: 1252 // PC Code Page

);

p_ErrNo = sys_errno;

p_Msg = strerror (errno);
</snip>
The value received for the error message text is
