Hi Gerald,
Not sure what you are doing wrong!
I never had problems compiling sources where I specified SQL indexes in the
F-Specs.
Here an example:
1. I have the following DDS described physical file (ORDHDR):
A UNIQUE
A R ORDERHDR
A ORHNBR 5 COLHDG('ORDER NUMBER ')
A ALIAS(ORDER_NUMBER )
A CUSNBR 5 COLHDG('CUSTOMER NUMBER ')
A ALIAS(CUSTOMER_NUMBER)
A ORHDTE L COLHDG('ORDER DATE ')
A ALIAS(ORDER_DATE )
A ORHDLY L COLHDG('ORDER DELIVERY ')
A ALIAS(ORDER_DELIVERY )
A SRNBR 10 COLHDG('ORDER SALESREP ')
A ALIAS(ORDER_SALESREP )
A ORHTOT 11P 2 COLHDG('ORDER TOTAL ')
A ALIAS(ORDER_TOTAL )
A K ORHNBR
2. There is a SQL index over this physical file defined as follows:
Create Index OrdHdrI01 ON MySchema/ORDHDR
(ORDER_DATE, CUSTOMER_NUMBER, ORDER_NUMBER);
3. Here is a snippet from an RPG Program where I define this index in the
F-Specs:
H Option(*NoDebugIO) Debug
H DatFmt(*ISO) TimFmt(*ISO)
***************************************************************
FORDHDRI01 IF E k DISK Rename(OrdHdrF: OrdHdrF1)
***************************************************************
* D-Specs
***************************************************************
/Free
... Some Code
SetLL (D'2004-07-10': '55555') OrdHdrF1;
If Not %Equal;
Return;
EndIf;
... Other Code
ReadE (KeyDate: KeyCust) OrdHdrF1;
/End-Free
Hope this helps!
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Betreff: AW: SQL logical file equivalent
Birgitta,
"A SQL Index can be used with native I/O like any keyed DDS described
logical file."
I've tried that but never found it to be acceptable to the RPG compiler.
Care to share an example?
