I don't think you have much choices. If you are passing a binary file, you
would probably have to get converted to a base-64 to send through as text
and convert it back when you get there. Problem is the age only problem of
stored procedures. How big is what you are sending? Parameters are limited
in size.

I am working on an open source solution to all this but unfortunately it is
not ready for prime time yet.

The other problem is what are you going to so with a zip file when you get
there?

Scott Klement,
There are two types of files. The files are unique to a given stored
procedure call and are only used once.
--XML files are parsed, processed and discarded
--ZIP files contain text files and sometimes media files (e.g. PDF, JPG,
MOV). The text files are fixed-format data that is processed and
discarded. The media files are retained on the IFS.

Yes, the plan would be to read the entire file contents into memory and
pass it to the stored procedure.


Gary Thompson,
I'll to try those searches again. All I found were discussion about
passing native files between RPGLE programs not stream files.

I'm supposed to get by on parameter data only, so any kind of JDBC to SQL
Server or FTP is right out.
