Re: %trim and %trimr Not Working on a 32767A Field

The point is that it should look like ""SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM(BATCHEMAIL)
PARM(' me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' 'me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' ' ' ' ' 'My Subject'
'My body') JOB(SNDEMAIL)"

I want to remove the spaces to cut down the size. And I am getting an error
message saying it can't find the matching parenthesis.

Do you see the "JOB(SNDEMAIL)"?  Before, or after, the large group of
spaces?  If before then what is probably happening is that debug is
showing you the entire field of cmd at the maximum length and wrapping "
around it, and, the " are not really part of the variable.

%trim and %trimr Not Working on a 32767A Field






Just as the subject says. I am wring a subproceedure that can take in any
length of field. I am trying to trim down the field to the proper size,
but
it isn't. Here is the code:

     P SendBatchEmail  B                   EXPORT
     D SendBatchEmail  PI
     D  fromAddress                 100A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)
     D  toAddress                 32767A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)
     D  ccAddress                 32767A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)
     D  bccAddress                32767A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)
     D  subject                   32767A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)
     D  body                      32767A   CONST
     D                                     OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)

      /free

        cmd = 'SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM(BATCHEMAIL) ' +
              'PARM(''' + %trim(fromAddress) + ''' ''' +
                          %trim(toAddress) + ''' ''' +
                          %trim(ccAddress) + ''' ''' +
                          %trim(bccAddress) + ''' ''' +
                          %trim(subject) + ''' ''' +
                          %trim(body) + ''') JOB(SNDEMAIL)';

        ExecClCmd(cmd);

      /end-free
     P SendBatchEmail  E

After the assignment to cmd, it contains "SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM(BATCHEMAIL)
PARM('me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' 'me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
..." A ton of spaces and no ending quote mark. Any ideas? I am sure I am
doing something stupid, I just can't see it.
