Re: [EXTERNAL] Why file journaling requirement for SQL operations?

But getting back to Alan's question: What did you have in your commit definition? Was it the same program? Or was one in STRSQL and the other in RUNSQLSTM?

Setting commitment control on individual statements:
RTM: In the manual you will see a commitment clause. You are probably looking for WITH NC as in with no commitment. Sample: Delete from mytable where recid='Z' with nc

Setting commitment control on STRSQL:
F13=Services, 1. Change session attributes, Commitment control . . . . . . *NONE

Setting commitment control on RUNSQLSTM:
RUNSQLSTM COMMIT(*NONE)

Setting commitment control in Run SQL Scripts:
Edit, JDBC Configurations, Isolation level

Setting commitment control in embedded sql:
See Alan's examples.

Alan,

It was actually a simple: DELETE FROM WHERE to a work file....nothing
special or complex...

It worked fine interactively, but evidently evidently there's different
rules for batch programs that I wasn't aware of....

How are you setting your SQL commit option?

These are what we normally set in embedded SQL
Exec Sql Set Option Commit=*None, CLOSQLCSR=*ENDMOD, DECMPT=*PERIOD;
Exec Sql Set Option DATFMT = *YMD;

OK, out of curiosity, why is it a requirement that files be journaled
before you can do programmatic SQL operations against them?

Ran into CPF4328 this morning and never heard of this requirement
before!
