Re: embedded sql and object_statistics

Try...

where exists( select 1 from table( systools.split( :I_objects, ',' ) ) L (
SPLIT_VALUE ) where L.SPLIT_VALUE = OS.OBJNAME )

...instead of

where in( ) ...

EXISTS () is more forgiving on syntax than IN ().

Hi Jay,

try to use the SYSTOOLS.SPLITT table function - I think the syntax is:

where objname in (select element
from table(splitt(:l_objects, ‘,‘)))

but I’m not 100% sure - because I’m out of the office right now.

I used it several times in an application where I needed a „dynamic
parameter list“ - works AFAIK on 7.3 and later.

HTH

I'm doing an embedded rpgle sql select on qsys2.object_statistics,
and
my
where clause contains...
where objname in (:l_objects)

l_objects = char(2048) and will contain a comma delimited string of
objects, just as sql "IN" would want to see... ie. 'OBJECT1',
'OBJECT2'

in debug it looks fine... I even tried (trim(:l_objects))

However when I run it, I get sqlcode 100.

But if I convert the thing to dynamic sql, i can get it to work.
(but I really don't want to have to do that)...

any suggestions to make it work without dynamic?
