Re: Creating stored procedure that uses CONNECT TO myserver USER myuser USING password fails

are you coding the : in the sql? or is that just something the procedure
generator is putting in there?

I've got an SQL stored procedure I'm trying to create...

CONNECT TO MYSERVER USER MYUSER USING mypass;

I want mypass to be a variable, however I can't get it to work.

I've tried defining mypass as
- a local variable to in the stored proc
- a global variable outside the SP
- a parm to the stored proc.

In all cases, the ILE C compile fails
--local
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO MYSERVER USER MYUSER USING :SQLP_L2.MYPASS ;
* SQL0104 Position 48 Token : was not valid. Valid tokens:
<IDENTIFIER>.
--parm
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO MYSERVER USER MYUSER USING :NMYPROC.MYPASS ;
* SQL0104 Position 48 Token : was not valid. Valid tokens:
<IDENTIFIER>.
--global
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO MYSERVER USER MYUSER USING MYPASS ;
* SQL0104 Position 48 Token MYPASS was not valid. Valid tokens:
:.

According to the doc, CONNECT TO is an executable statement...and it

can't

be dynmaically prepared...

So what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
