Re: Searching IFS stream file for string and returning position

From the select of the IFS you can find the position of your string

sql can read ifs check below example

SELECT * FROM TABLE(QSYS2.IFS_READ(PATH_NAME =>
'/home/MyFolder/test.txt'))

however your version of OS need to be on *Db2 for i* *IBM i* 7.4 TR3 or 7.3 TR9.

Hey, all.

Just wondering if there are any tools one can use to search a stream

file

for a string and return the position of the string where found. (case
insensitive would be best)

Perl. Python. Java. C/C++. Welcome to regex land.

Play with grep a bit to see how this works.
