iQuery.xxxLIBL() - UDF and Procedure Published by: Bob Cozzi on 18 Jun 2019 view comments

Check, Change, or Add To the Library List

The iQuery.xxxLIBL() UDFs and iQuery.xxxLIBL() Stored Procedures allow uses to use SQL to check and change the library list for the job.

Name Type Parameter(s) Description
CHKLIBLE UDF varchar(10) Check the library list for the specified library name. Returns 1 if found, 0 if not found.
ADDLIBLE Proc varchar(3000) Add one or more libraries to the library list. Library names are separated by one or more blanks.
RMVLIBLE Proc varchar(3000) Remove one or more libraries from the library list. Library names are separated by one or more blanks.
CHGLIBL Proc varchar(3000) Replaces the user-portion of the library list with the list of library names (separated by one or more blanks).
CHGCURLIB Proc varchar(10) Changes the Current Library of the library list to the library name specified.

The CHKLIBLE UDF can be used to verify that a library is on the library list before running other SQL statements or CL commands.

The Procedures (ADDLIBLE, RMVLIBLE, CHGLIBL) will modify the user portion of the job's library list. Note that ADDLIBL and RMVLIBL are alternate spellings for the ADDLIBLE and RMVLIBLE procedures, respectively.

Example

EXEC SQL CALL iQuery.addlible('ORDENTRY SALESHIST IQUERY');

SQL iQuery Script Example

if (chklible('SALESHIST') = 0);
    call iQuery.addlible('SALESHIST');
endif;

RPG IV Example

exec sql values iQuery.chklible('SALESHIST') into :libExists;
if (libExists = 0);
    exec SQL call iQuery.addlible('SALESHIST');
endif;
