SQLRPGLE Stored Procedure Error Handling.

[John Wallroff <jwallroff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have written a few SQLRPGLE programs that return result sets for stored
procedures for result sets that are too complicated to create using simple
SQL statements.  We simply do all the data manipulation needed in the RPG
section and move the data needed for the result set into a multioccurrence
data structure.  This ends up being the only SQL in the program.

 

C/exec sql                              

C+ SET RESULT SETS ARRAY :RS FOR :X ROWS

C/end-exec                              

 

RS is the name of the data structure and X is the number of valid
occurrences.

 

My question is, if a problem happens in the RPG area of the code how would
you suggest communicating to the Java program that calls the stored
procedure that a problem has occurred in the RPG section of the code.  What
the problem is isn't important right now, just how to communicate that one
has occurred.

 

Thanks.

 

John.
