Re: IFS add New Record

Thx Vern

That is the solution, I was looking

To create a new line in file IFS
The solution is

crlf s 2 inz(x'0d25)

Open ......

Eval data = ('line one' + crlf)
Callp write(.....

Eval data = ('line two' + crlf)
Callp write(......

Callp close(dd)

Thx very much
Again Vern.

Regards.

Remember that IFS files do not have "records", in the way that physical
files do. They certainly do not have anything like a record format.

Usually IFS files are processed with lines, if they are text files. These
lines will often have a carriage return (CR) or line-feed (LF) or new-line
(NL) - this depends on operating system, Unix may use one while Macintosh
uses another, etc.

In any case, IFS files are stream files - just a stream of bytes, one
after another. Any structure is something you impose on the bytes in your
programs. Something like internal file descriptions, but we must not make
the comparison too close - PFs as flat files still had a fixed-length
record, while stream files do not.

Now that I've said that, it is possible to use RPG WRITE operations to
send data to an IFS file - Barbara Morris has an example, I believe, using
the Open Access methodology that we have now.

Gerardo,

One place to look for your answer is Scott Klement's tools.
You should have little trouble finding what you need because he has a
kind
of
'course of study' on reading/writing to/from the IFS.
We've used his stuff locally to help manage files on our IFS, but I've
never
done any updates directly to an IFS file, so I can't answer your
question.

Subject: IFS add New Record

Hi..
Everybody.

How can I do to add a new record into file. This file is in IFS.

Actually I am using

Eval
FD=('/home/Desinf/file.text':o_creat+o_trunc+o_wronly:rw*
owner+rw*group+r)

After that I am using Write

What parameter I need to change to add new record to file?

Regards.
