Re: Base64 binary in JSON

I've been tasked with generating a JSON document that contains a PDF

The process is in RPG, but I'd be open to anything that can be
practically called from RPG as well.


You can use the SQL function BASE64ENCODE.

exec sql set :encodedField = SYSTOOLS.BASE64ENCODE(:VarcharField);
