Re: Reg: Encrypt/Decrypt Image in IBMi

Just wondering

If you need to save the document for keeps,
why not store it permanently in a Blob field in the DB?
(the last I heard it was called DB2/400)

When needed, extract it (using SQL) to a temp dir in the IFS and let the
user open it.

Sure ?

Alternative 1: read the IFS file with SQL into a BLOB field - encrypt and
write it out with SQL again

Alternative 2: read the IFS file with IFS APIs - encrypt and write it out
with IFS APIs.

With SQL there is the chance that you can also do the encryption with SQL
- if the algorithm is supported.

HTH and kind regards,
Daniel
