Re: IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS equivalent over mounted drive?

I got it to work. I skipped the procedure and had the function call the
program directly.
CREATE OR *REPLACE* FUNCTION docsys.Folder_Exist2 (
PathName *CHAR*(*132*)
)
RETURNS *CHAR*(*20*)
LANGUAGE cl
DETERMINISTIC
EXTERNAL NAME docsys.fldrexist;

Thanks for all of the help.

I don't do these so sort of out of my element.
I changed the procedure to this. The procedure still works but same result
for the function.
CREATE OR *REPLACE* PROCEDURE docsys.folderExist (
IN PathName *CHAR*(*132*),
OUT results *CHAR*(*20*)
)
LANGUAGE CL
NO SQL
DETERMINISTIC
EXTERNAL NAME docsys.fldrexist

Why LANGUAGE RPGLE

When it's a CL program?

Also PARAMETER STYLE GENERAL WITH NULLS isn't correct.

HTH,

Chicken lips. I have been trying all day to get this to work. I am
sure a
better way exists but...
I have a CLLE that I have tested. working as I want.
I created a stored procedure that I have tested and it works fine.
Now trying to get a UDF created can not get it to work. The value it
returns is <NULL>.
I have tried several ways in both the procedure and function.

This is my CLLE works:
docsys/FldrExist.clle
PGM PARM(&PATHNAME &RESULT)
DCL VAR(&PATHNAME) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(132)
DCL VAR(&RESULT) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(20)
DCL VAR(&dtaaraval) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(2)
/*
*/
qmgtools/CHKIFS IFSDIR(&PATHNAME) CRTDTAARA(Y)
DTAARA(CHKIFS)
+
DTAARALIB(QTEMP)
RTVDTAARA DTAARA(QTEMP/CHKIFS (1 2)) RTNVAR(&DTAARAVAL)
IF COND(&DTAARAVAL = '00') THEN(DO)
CHGVAR &RESULT 'Obj_Not_Found'
enddo
IF COND(&DTAARAVAL = '10') THEN(DO)
CHGVAR &RESULT 'Obj_Found'
enddo
ENDPGM: ENDPGM

This is my stored procedure create:
CREATE OR *REPLACE* PROCEDURE docsys.folderExist (
IN PathName *CHAR*(*132*),
INOUT results *CHAR*(*20*)
)
LANGUAGE RPGLE
NO SQL
DETERMINISTIC
EXTERNAL NAME docsys.fldrexist
PARAMETER STYLE GENERAL WITH NULLS

This is my test of stored procedure:
call docsys.folderexist ('/home/kcrawfrd', ' ')
The result is 'Obj_Found'

This is my function:
CREATE OR *REPLACE* FUNCTION docsys.Folder_Exist (
PathName *CHAR*(*132*)
)
RETURNS *CHAR*(*20*)
LANGUAGE sql
DETERMINISTIC
BEGIN
DECLARE Results *CHAR*(*20*);
CALL docsys.FolderExist(
PathName,
Results
);
RETURN Results;
END

This is my test of function:
SELECT '/home/kcrawfrd',
docsys.Folder_exist('/home/kcrawfrd')
FROM sysibm.sysdummy1
The result in second column is <NULL>

TIA

Wrap a UDF which gets the results of that command?
QMGTOOLS is not the only version of CHKIFS in the ether. Perhaps
someone
has a UDF wrapped around that version?

Jack, the SQL works over a native IFS drive but not a mounted
drive.
Rob, I will look at the QMGTOOLS/CHKIFS a bit more. my first
glance is
yes
it works. It is creating a data area and putting 00 in it if the
directory
did not exist and a 01 if it did. Trying to figure out how to use
this.
My hope was using my ctrlFile come up with a list of all directories
that
do not exist. With the CHKIFS using a data area not sure how to use
that
with my SQL statement. I guess I will need to write a program that
will
read the ctrlFile run the command CHKIFS look at the data area then
decide
if it was found or not populating table. That is a bit more work
than
I
wanted to do. Lazy at heart.

I have a mounted directory. This works
QMGTOOLS/CHKIFS IFSDIR('/GDWEB/tmp/sshd.pid')
There's no help on that command. I did a DSPJOBLOG to figure out
how
it
worked.

In case you're wondering:
Allow RTVCLSRC (CL module) . . . . . . . . . . : *NO

I can use this SQL, and it appears to work over an IFS drive.
SELECT ftpdir, c.*
FROM myLibrary.myCtrlFile c
WHERE *UPPER*(ftpdir) NOT IN
(SELECT *UPPER*(*SUBSTR*(PATH_NAME, *16*, *15*))
FROM TABLE
(QSYS2.IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS('/home/myFolder/',
'YES'
, '*ALLDIR'))
)
But my directory is a mounted drive. IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS will
not
work
over mounted drives.
Do I have any other options?
