Re: QtmWrStout parameters

I have eagerly read them Jon, thank you. I unfortunately have some
customers that lag behind significantly in Version/Release, and even in
supported VRM behind on PTF groups. (the don't fix what ain't broke crowd)

So I need two versions of the software, one for more progressive shops and
one for those less up to date.

Build the JSON with DATA-GEN Jim along with YAJLDTAGEN much easier than

you'll create a lot of extra traffic carting blanks around.

In example of how to use QtemWrStout Scott Klement builds the following:

jsonName = %scanrpl( '"': '\"': row.name );
jsonDate = %char( %date( row.date: *iso ): *iso );
data = %char(LBRACE) + CRLF
+ ' "invno": "' + row.inv + '",' + CRLF
+ ' "date": "' + jsonDate + '",' + CRLF
+ ' "name": "' + %trim(jsonName) + '",' + CRLF
+ ' "amount": "' + %char(row.amount) + '",' + CRLF
+ ' "weight": "' + %char(row.weight) + '"' + CRLF
+ %char(RBRACE);
QtmhWrStout(data: %len(data): err);

Simple enough, but can the "data" variable be a data structure instead.
The idea being that all the constants are defined in the data structure

and

then to fill in the actual data the only need would be to be assigned

from

a database read or input variable.
