Subject: Auto load an array when reading a record.
i'm pretty sure i have seen this done but,
I'd like to read a record, and automatically populate an array. I know it
can be done with the old syntax with beginng and ending positions because i
have old examples of it in the source here but i would like to do it using
newer syntax and as gracefully as possible.
My current example (i have had many variations) won't compile but i think it
gives the gist of what i am trying to do, which is automatically load the
LabelName array upon read of the file xrcl01.
A successful example of what i am trying to do would be appreciated.
dcl-f XRCL01 usage(*input ) keyed ;
// File layout for xrcl01
// XRCUST customer number (key)
// XRLSTM last maint date
// XRLA01 label name 1 char(8)
// XRLA02 label name 2 char(8)
// XRLA03 label name 3 char(8)
// XRSET1 label 1 sets dec(2:0)
// XRSET2 label 2 sets dec(2:0)
// XRSET1 label 3 sets dec(2:0)
dcl-ds LabelName dim( 3) ;
XRLA01 pos( 1) ;
XRLA02 pos( 9) ;
XRLA03 pos( 17) ;
end-ds;
chain 039356 XRCL01 ;
*inlr = *on;
