I'm keeping my fingers crossed, because it's working on QNTC files.
Hope IBM doesn't break it in the future.

@Jon: it's my hint of API use, which I feel discouraged about because
I would rather reduce the number of technologies in use to the minimum
@Ron: that would be my first choice, which I mentioned in n. 3;
unfortunately IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS doesn't work for all file systems,
as stated in IBM official documentation and not for QNTC as I have proof of.

Hi Maria,
I'm not sure what didn't work with SQL, but that's how I get a files
list from QNTC.
Originally, I retrieved the list with an listifs function:
Exec SQL Declare Attachments Cursor for
Select PATHNAME, FILENAME, CRTTIME from
table(listifs(trim(:FullDocPath),'*')) as ifs
where filename <> '.' and filename <> '..';
I've switched to using a SQL service:
Exec SQL Declare Attachments Cursor for
Select PATH_NAME, OBJECT_OWNER, CREATE_TIMESTAMP
from table
(QSYS2.IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS(START_PATH_NAME
=>
trim(:FullDocPath),
SUBTREE_DIRECTORIES => 'NO'))
where object_type <> '*DIR';
//Must substring document name from the full PATH_NAME
S2DOC = %subst(S2PATH:%scanr('/':S2PATH)+1);
Hope this helps.

Subject: How to provide an RPG ILE program with a list of files in a
QNTC directory
Hi all,
Hope you are all fine.
For a new RPG ILE procedure, I have to list the content of a
directory defined under QNTC.
The directory is reachable and readable by a specific user and from
within WRKLNK everything works fine.
Now, I am looking for the right technique, or simply the most
appropriate, to list the directory content inside an RPG ILE program.
These are my unsuccessful tries, all executed under the owner
control and
authorization:
1. RTVDIRINF DIR('/QNTC/FS1-21/myFolder') -> final files are empty
2. ftp '127.0.0.1' -> ls -l /QNTC/FS1-21/myFolder -> "Path does not
exist"
3. via SQL from TABLE(IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS) -> explicitly won't work
and I couldn't find a better choice
The only successful try was:
DSPLNK OBJ('/QNTC/FS1-21/myFolder/*') OUTPUT(*PRINT) which obliges
me to read the spool file right after.
I unsuccessfully looked through midrange.com archives and neither
was the IBM official documentation of help.
Is coding using API the only alternative?
Thank you all and have a great day
Lucia
