I need to interface our payroll program with Vertex Q Series payroll tax
software. The Vertex functions are written in C and our payroll programs
are in RPG. I am not proficient in the C language and Vertex support
doesn't know RPG so I'm struggling to prototype their functions in my
program. Has anyone integrated with Vertex using their Enhance
Integration XML api's?
Here's the definition of one of their functions:
Parameter Use Description
---------- ----
-----------------------------------------
lConnHdl I The connection
handle returned from VprtOpenPRT
Session I/O Pointer to the
session handle, which will hold the context for this session. Should be
initialized to NULL before the first call.
XmlBuf I Character string
containing XML request
XmlResult O Pointer to character
string where the result will be stored
pResultSize I On input, the size of
the XmlResult buffer
PREFIX int POSTFIX VprtXML(tVprtConn lConnHdl, void **pSession, char
*XmlBuf, char *XmlResult, long *pResultSize);
Here's an example of what I tried but it doesn't appear to be correct
because nothing happens when I execute. Any suggestions? I am able to
open a connection to the database and create the connection handle using
another api.
D VprtXML PR EXTPROC(*CWIDEN: 'VprtXML')
D pConn * value options(*string)
D pSession * value options(*string)
D pXmlBuf * value options(*string)
D pXmlResult * value options(*string)
D pResultSize 10I 0
xml = '<QUERY> ' +
'<PAYDATE>20130901</PAYDATE> ' +
'<GEOSTATE>39</GEOSTATE> ' +
'<GEOCNTY>129</GEOCNTY> ' +
'<GEOCITY>2560</GEOCITY> ' +
'<TAXID>537</TAXID> ' +
'<GET> ' +
'<TAXNAMES/> ' +
'</GET> ' +
'</QUERY>' + NULL;
xml = cvtCCSID( xml: 819: NULL);
pConnection = %addr(lConHnd);
pSession = %addr(session);
pXmlBuf = %addr(xml);
VprtXML(pConnection: pSession: pXmlBuf: pXmlResult:
pResultSize);
