Bob do I still need to add this to FileName when FileName is defined as 35
characters and every single character position will be taken up?  I will
always have 35 characters.

I'm sure Scott will help you get the logic and flags working, but I thought
I'd
mention that your code is wrong.
That's when you pass a pointer, whether its pFileName or %addr(szFileName),
a
prototyped subprocedure parameter that is defined as follows:

     D pFileName             * Value Options(*STRING)

Does NOT convert the value into a null-terminated string. It only converts
it
when a text string is passed (i.e., when a non-pointer is passed). When a
pointer is specified, it passes it right through without converting
anything.

So you have to add the X'00' to the end of the string.
And you have to ensure that there are no trailing blanks in the field.
So for your example, this might work:

  FileName = %trimR(FileName) + X'00';
  pFileName = %addr(fileName);

Of course the sequence of these _two_ statements means nothing.

Subject: IFS Open Help...


I have this routine that's suppose to create a new IFS document (if already
exists, I want to overwrite what's there).  When I tested this program last
week, it worked as expected.  But now that it's in production, it's not
working anymore.  I've even moved the data from this morning to the test
system to walk through the steps today still a no go.

When I stepped through the program...

FileName = '/html/imsinv/INV00100001676760.HTML'  // this is correct.
FileNamP = SPP:C71128539607BF90                   // I assume this is
correct.
OFLAG = 16777282
OMODE = 511
CP = 819

but...

open(FileNamP:Oflag:Omode:cp) = -1

I found in the archives that someone else needed to trim the FileName for
the openFile() routine that they were using, I'm wondering though, do I
need to have a trim about my FileNam on the FileNamP = %ADDR(FileNam) line?
Well then again, the FileName will always be the same length of 35
characters. This process is new to me, please bear with me.

Thanks,

P.S. I am using the 'QC2LE' binding directory.

BegSr CreateIFSDocument#;
   // This code was copied from the web, therefore, I'm
   // not quite sure how this all works. But I'll Try to
   // explain it to the best of my knowledge.
   *In99 = *Off;
   // Form the file name you want to create in the IFS.
   FileNam  = IFSDir + 'INV' + DRGLCPY + %EditC(DRORD:'X') +
              '.HTML';
   // This is new to me, but I believe that I'm telling
   // this field to point to the address of FileNam
   FileNamP = %ADDR(FileNam);
   // setup the OFlag to indicate that we want
   // this file to be write only and to truncate
   // left over data when the file already exists.
   // Again, I don't know how this works, but
   // O_WRONLY = write only, O_TRUNC = truncate.
   Oflag = O_WRONLY + O_TRUNC + O_TEXTDATA;

   // Open the file name requested.
   If open(FileNamP:Oflag:Omode:cp) = -1;
      perror(FileNamP);
      *In99 = *On;
      LeaveSR;
   EndIf;

EndSr;
