RE: User Index

Think of the index as a file.  If you want to read all entries one option is to 
create a loop, use the first option on the first read and with that key use the 
greater than option for subsequent reads.  The pieces are there you just need 
to manipulate them to suit your needs.

I would need to double check but I believe you can retrieve multiple entries at 
once.  This will cut down on the number of reads.

Yes .. right.
I also got the parameters for this.
Thanks.

Now, I have moved some records to USER INDEX and want to retrieve all the
records thru QUSRTVUI.
No search type provides the way to get all the records. (Search type (input,
4 bytes, binary)--the type of search to perform. Valid values: 1 = equal; 2
= greater than; 3 = less than; 4 = greater than or equal; 5 = less than or
equal; 6 = first (the first entry in the user index); 7 = last (the last
entry in the user index); 8 = between)

How can I use between if i want to?
Or is there anything else to get all the records ?


Thanks and Regards,
Gauri.

Hi,

there are a couple of APIs to handle User Indexes:
  Add User Index Entries (QUSADDUI)
  Create User Index (QUSCRTUI)
  Delete User Index (QUSDLTUI)
  Remove User Index Entries (QUSRMVUI)
  Retrieve User Index Attributes (QUSRUIAT)
  Retrieve User Index Entries (QUSRTVUI)

Just look at the decriptions in the online library:

Betreff: User Index


Hello,

I am trying to create a user index thru 'QUSCRTUI' which is handled in my
RPG program.
I could create the index but dont know how to write and retrieve the records
thru the RPG
program.
Can Anybody help me doing this?

Also, if the user index exists, i had to delete it and create the new one
for new data. Is there any pgm or something which will help to CLEAR the
user index instead of deleting and creating it again ?

Thanks and Regards,
Gauri.
