Let me admit that I've never written stored procedures or interfaced
with them from web applications, but my initial take is that they may be
more applicable to ODBC / JDBC environments; perhaps where the stored
procedure runs under a secure user profile. Do folks use them in RPG
programs?
Writing a stored procedure in RPG is very simple. iSeries DB2 support
lets one turn just about any program into a stored procedure with the
addition of 'set result sets' and a 'create procedure.' Very Cool.
Consuming a stored procedure in RPG is not nearly as nice. The only way
I know how to do it directly is via SQL CLI. There's an old project on
Sourceforge - iseriestoolkit - that was a great start to wrappering up
the CLI for RPG programmers.
An indirect way is to have your RPG code call some Java code. Java can
consume the stored procedure, convert the result set into an array and
pass the array back to RPG.
You can guess how much fun either of these are by the number of times
we've seen solutions like these posted.
