Subject: Re: FTP from I5 to Server with CRLF
Hello Mary,
So we inserted the CRLF and thus got the blank records....we have changed
the CRLF from X'0d25' to x'0D0A'...
Just to be clear... x'0d25' is the EBCDIC code for CRLF. x'0d0a' is
the ASCII (and UTF-8) code for CRLF.
If your program is translating all of it's data to ASCII first, and then
sending the file without translation, then you should indeed code
x'0d0a'. However, if your program is writing EBCDIC data and the
translation is happening later (as part of the FTP process) then you
should be using x'0d25'.
Using the wrong code will likely result in "garbage" in the file.
I strongly suspect that you should NOT be adding a CR/LF in your
program. Instead, you should be letting FTP add a CRLF. If you want
the records to always be exactly the same length, make sure you set the
TRIM option so that it doesn't trim blanks off the end of records.
