Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Problem with an SQL UDF created from a procedure within a service program

Apologies Charles
I thought had done that -
D NextNumber PR 12p 0
D Function 50 value
D UseCommitmentControl...
D n const options(*nopass)

D NextNumber PI 12p 0
D Function 50 value
D UseCommitmentControl...
D n const options(*nopass)

Hi Charles
Thanks for your reply
Within STRDBG, not specifying the second parameter seems to be working
fine The procedure uses the following code
C Select

C When %parms = 1

C eval CommitmentControlIsActive = *off


C Other

C eval CommitmentControlIsActive =

C
UseCommitmentControl
C EndSL


And this looks to be working fine

According to Birgitta - the problem is how the input parameter is
defined in my function and How I am using the function in STRSQl
Tru=ing to rctify this situation - but having no luck

You said it accepts two parms, but you only have 1 defined...

CALLED NULL INPUT probably isn't what you want with PARAMETER STYLE
GENERAL since there won't be anyway for your RPG program to determine
if a NULL is passed.

Bet to post the PR/PI of the RPG proc in addition to the SQL Definition.

Before I forget, we are on V7r3
I have a procedure (NEXTNUMBER) within a service program (VALUES)
This is working in a number of programs I even created a test
program that uses this procedure, just so that I could STRDBG and
look at the logic flow It works It accepts 2 parameters, the second
one being optional First parameter is a char(50) parameter Second
parameter is a logical parameter

Below is how I created the SQL function When I run the function in
STRSQL

select NBTYGPL.NEXTNUMBER('ALAN SHORE TEST') from SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1

Using STRDBG in another session (after using STRSRVJOB), I can see
that the first parameter is garbage Anyone any idea what I did wrong?

As always - all answers gratefully accepted

Here is how I created the SQL function

CREATE FUNCTION NBTYGPL.NEXTNUMBER ( INORD CHAR(50) ) RETURNS
NUMERIC(12, 0) LANGUAGE RPGLE SPECIFIC NBTYGPL.NEXTNUMBER NOT
DETERMINISTIC NO SQL CALLED ON NULL INPUT DISALLOW PARALLEL
EXTERNAL NAME 'NBTYGPL/VALUE(NEXTNUMBER)'
PARAMETER STYLE GENERAL
