Re: Retrieving integer parameter after JT400 ProgramCall?

Dan,

The numeric in RPG is definitely 10i 0 (integer, 4b0, etc.).

d incgljseq pr extpgm('INCGLJSEQ')
d inlocation 5a const
d outuseseq 10i 0

I used a prototype instead of *ENTRY PLIST.

A testing program and SQL external procedure both call this program
successfully. Due to other limitations (unrelated to RPG or Java), I need
to
call the program from Java.

Thanks,
Loyd

If you are using a numeric field from RPG most likely it is
AS400ZonedDecimal or AS400PackedDecimal. From your description of the
characters, I'd bank on packed. Probably 3/0 (three positions, zero

decimal

positions). Something like this

BigDecimal result = (BigDecimal)new
AS400PackedDecimal(3,0).toObject(parmList[0].getOutputData());

I'm working from memory here, but I believe the java object returned by

the

toObject of AS400PackedDecimal is BigDecimal.
