RE: IFS to BLOB and BLOB to IFS without RPG?

Thanks Mark. I was going to say that I tried it, and it didn't work, but it did this time. So, the following worked for me.


create table darren/btest
(f1 blob)

insert into darren/btest
(select * from table(values GET_BLOB_FROM_FILE('/tmp/test.pdf',1))
)

Commit

call qsys2.ifs_write_binary
(PATH_NAME=>'/tmp/testout.pdf',
LINE=>(select * from darren/btest),
OVERWRITE=>'NONE'
)

Try using IFS_WRITE_BINARY ...

Yeah, after I sent my original solution with CLOB, I figured the same should work for BLOB if it works with CLOB. Not so. IFS_WRITE does not like or want a BLOB type input.

Is there a put_blob_to_file?
