Re: Fwd: Prototype CPYBRAP instruction

Thank you.

I had seen the absence of a bound access box in the MI reference, but
as CPYBLAP actually is useable from ILE (I use it a lot, try it for
yourself) I thought I could get it to work. But this means that the MI
reference is wrong on CPYBLAP then I guess.

Erik

Hi Eric,

This one has a simple answer.  CPYBRAP and CPYBLAP are both OMI-only
instructions and they can't be used from an ILE program.  The mystifying
thing is the fact that the QSYSINC/MIH.CPYBLAP header file exists...

                       Thanks,

Aaron Albertson

Sorry, I'm still interested in the CPYBRAP prototype but to solve my
immediate business need I'm going with the good old trusted cpynv (if
anyone was going to suggest that).

Erik

Has anyone managed to prototype the CPYBRAP MI instruction? I have
tried a number of different approaches, even using the similar CPYBLAP
file from QSYSINC but so far no success.
(For the record, I have to populate a zoned decimal field that's 13, 0
so I can't use QXXITOZ as it only takes ints, ie not long long int and
I was thinking that CPYBRAP would be neater than a snprintf).

Best wishes,
Erik
