AW: Calling Stored Procedures in RPG

Mike,

Normally a SQL stored procedure can be called with the SQL command CALL.
(even before release 7.1)

Did you check the SQLCODE/SQLCOD or SQLSTATE/SQLSTT immediately after the
call?
What SQLCODE or SQLSTATE is set?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Birgitta Hauser

Betreff: Re: Calling Stored Procedures in RPG

In summary:

It is an SQL stored procedure. (From my previous recent threads.)

I was hoping to call it like

c/exec sql
c+ call MPRLIB/SP_VERIFYHOURS (:key, :reply)
c/end-exec

key is defined as IN. reply is OUT.

Reply should be returning a 1. We are getting 0, the default for the
variable.

The stored procedure works just fine when called from ASP.NET.

Your last statement confuses me - exec sql IS using SQL. Do you perhaps
mean CLI?

I don't know if output parameters can be seen in RPG - I know that it
was not possible to get a result set from a stored procedure in earlier
releases.

We are on 6.1.

I didn't wrap that in the exec sql. We are using SQL to call it.

Hi, Mike:

What version / release of OS/400 or i5/OS are you running?

I do not think this is supported until IBM i 7.1 ...

A web search shows me how to use stored procedures to call RPG, but I
want to call a stored procedure from RPG with one out parameter.  We
are currently doing `call MPRLIB/SP_VERIFYHOURS (:key, :reply) ` but
it doesn't seem to be working. key is defined as IN and reply is
defined as OUT. What are we missing?
