Re: QIBM_QTG_DEVINIT

That’s totally helpful Charles.
Yes I’m overlooking the fact that up address is actually another DS!

Let me address that.

Thank you!

Well, I'd say you're doing something wrong... :p

Show the DS definition and how it's being loaded...

A quick glance at the docs,
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4.0?topic=program-init0100-format-connection-description-information

and I see that the IP address field is actually another DS...
Name
Size
Description
sin_len CHAR(1) Size of the sockaddr_in structure
sin_family CHAR(1) Protocol family IP (Version 4) is hex 02
sin_port CHAR(2) 16-bit unsigned port number
sin_addr CHAR(16) 4-byte unsigned
An RPG DS would be
dcl-ds ipAddr;
len int(3);
family int(3);
port uint(5);
addr uint(10);
*n char(12)
end-ds;

Little confused about the sin_addr being defined as char(16) yet the
description is "4-byte unsigned"..

I'm assuming that there's 12 bytes of filler...which looks to be the case
from what you posted...

HTH,
Charles

has anyone worked with this exit point before.

My exit pgm is coded and my parms are coming in correctly aligned however
some of the data is non legible and look like the following...
12:54 PM (0 minutes ago)
to me

EVAL ds_connect

DS_CONNECT.LENCONNDSC = 132

DS_CONNECT.IP4ADDRESSCLIENT = '██ÉC█Õ█P '

DS_CONNECT.CLIENTPWVALIDATED = '0'

DS_CONNECT.WORKSTATIONTYPE = 'IBM-3477-FC '

DS_CONNECT.SSLCONNECTION = '1'

DS_CONNECT.IP4ADDRESSSERVER = '███\█À██ '

DS_CONNECT.CLIENTAUTHLEVEL = '0'

DS_CONNECT.RESERVED01 = ' '

DS_CONNECT.CLIENTCERTVALID = 0

DS_CONNECT.OFFSETCLIENTCERT = 1362

DS_CONNECT.CLIENTCERTLEN = 0

DS_CONNECT.IP6ADDRESSCLIENT = '██ÉC ███Õ█P '

DS_CONNECT.IP6ADDRESSSERVER = '███\ ███À██ '


I have tried ccsid(*utf8) for the first ip4 address variable but no luck.


Any idea why these are not coming through legible?
