RE: Read IFS txt file

I was thinking I wanted a copy of the actual returned data.
Changed it to Response = http_string ('GET' : request);

Looks like they return CrLf so it shows up as ?? in the data.
Anyway of converting that in the call?

Why write to the IFS?

I'd use http_string() or http_req() and retrieve the response into an RPG variable...

Hi All,

I have a carrier that I use a url to get a rate.
They return just a text string like 22.50,2,1,1.00

The request is their url and some parameters.
The ResponseFile is Response.txt.

Rc = http_url_get( Request : ResponseFile); The Response.txt now
contains
22.50,2,1,1.00

What is the best way for me to read that txt file?
The old Open and Read or is there a newfangled way of reading it?
