First nested data structures are NOT supported.

But what happens if you try the following (I didn't try it myself).

DCL-DS JL0099 ExtName(JBTJK0099: *ALL) Qualified Dim(100);
DCL-DS JL0110 ExtName(JBTJK0110: *ALL) Qualified Dim(100);
DCL-DS JL0120 ExtName(JBTJK0120: *ALL) Qualified Dim(100);

exec sql fetch from [cursor] for 100 rows into :JL0099, :JL0110, :JL0120;

BTW for performance issues it is never a good idea to fetch all columns. It
is much better if you read exactly what you need.

Subject: Embedded SQL into a DS of multiple DS


I am trying to perform a FETCH into a DS, with that data structure being
defined smaller DSs, each DS being the fields in a table that the SQL SELECT
selects from.

Does anyone know if it is possible to do something like this:

D JL0099 E DS ExtName(JBTJL0099 : *ALL)
D JL0110 E DS ExtName(JBTJL0110 : *ALL)
D JL0120 E DS ExtName(JBTJL0120 : *ALL)

dcl-ds DS_ALL dim(100) qualified;
d1_ds likeds(jl0099);
d2_ds likeds(jl0110);
d3_ds likeds(jl0120);
end-ds;


then:

exec sql fetch from [cursor] for 100 rows into :ds_all

The SQL is a join of 4 tables, but I can't get this to compile. I get the
"SQL0312 Variable DS_ALL not defined or not usable" error. Can you fetch
into a DS of DSs?

Thank you,

Doug
