RE: RPG400-L Digest, Vol 7, Issue 888

I am in the same exact situation as you. I ended up using a UDTF.

I created a separate subprocedure and service program that accesses my
original service program where the data extraction takes place. The new
service program is called from an external SQL function that returns a
table.

You could also use a SQL stored procedure that executes a SQL statement,
and opens and sets a cursor.

I can provide examples off list if you would like.

Subject: Creating SQL result set in RPG without 5722ST1

All,

Am experimenting with the excellent "RPG to the Web" articles

published

earlier this year by SK and have run into a slight problem in that our
shop does not have
5722ST1 SQL Developer Kit so it isn't possible for me to compile

SQLRPG.

I've had success in the past using QSQPRCED and SQL CLI to prepare

and

execute SQL statements from RPG, but this is the first time I've

needed

to create and return a result set. Presumably there are one or more

API

calls that simulate "SET RESULT SETS" but my inexperience is showing

as

I cannot put all the pieces together.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Unfortunately, purchasing
5722ST1 isn't an option here - our iSeries shop is in the process of
being replaced by a 'nix system and I am specifically disallowed from
purchasing or installing any additional software during the process.

All

education is on my dime and spare time...

Many thanks, JK
