Again I replace the file with my saved copy.Ġ1 CALL QSYS2.IFS_WRITE('/home/MyFolder/test.txt',Ġ2 CALL QSYS2.IFS_WRITE('/home/MyFolder/test.txt', Let me write a line to the file with just a CRLF character, and then write the line I want to add to the file. This must mean that the fifth line does not end with a character that IFS_WRITE understands as an end of line character. The line was appended to the end of the last line: Let me try to write again this time with the end of line character CRLF.Īlas, the same happened to the file as before. I deleted the file test.txt, and uploaded saved copy from my PC to the IFS folder. The line was appended to the file, but not as a new line, just as a continuation of the last line. SELECT * FROM TABLE(QSYS2.IFS_READ('/home/MyFolder/test.txt'))ĬALL QSYS2.IFS_WRITE('/home/MyFolder/test.txt', When I use the IFS_READ table function it shows the file's contents: I am going to start by using the file I was reading yesterday: test.txt. END_OF_LINE: Is not supported if IFS_WRITE_BINARY is used.REPLACE An existing file is replaced, deleted and a new one created.NONE If the file already exists nothing happens.APPEND If the file in the path name exists add to the end of the file.If IFS_WRITE_UTF8 is used the CCSID will default to 1208, for the others it will be the partition's default If I am writing to an existing file this is ignored. FILE_CCSID: CCSID used when writing to a file.PATH_NAME: Path name to the file that will be written to.IFS_WRITE: Write plain text to the IFS fileĪll of these procedure have the same parameters:.Having played with this this is so much easier using these new SQL procedures.Īs with the IFS read table function there are three different SQL procedures to write to an IFS file: Prior to these TRs I had used C APIs embedded in a RPG program. This was added in the latest round of Technology Refreshes, IBM i 7.4 TR3 and 7.4 TR3. Then it was how to read an IFS file, today will be the opposite writing to an IFS file. You can always ask an expert in the Excel Tech Community or get support in the Answers community.This post continues yesterday's theme of doing things to files in the IFS with SQL. If no TRUE conditions are found, this function returns #N/A error. If a logical_test argument is evaluated and resolves to a value other than TRUE or FALSE, this function returns a #VALUE! error. If a logical_test argument is supplied without a corresponding value_if_true, this function shows a "You've entered too few arguments for this function" error message. In Example 1, rows 6 and 7 (with the 58 grade) demonstrate this. If none of the other conditions are met, the corresponding value will be returned. To specify a default result, enter TRUE for your final logical_test argument. Which says IF(the value in cell F2 equals 1, then return the value in cell D2, IF the value in cell F2 equals 2, then return the value in cell D3, and so on, finally ending with the value in cell D8 if none of the other conditions are met). Which says IF(A2 is Greater Than 89, then return a "A", IF A2 is Greater Than 79, then return a "B", and so on and for all other values less than 59, return an "F"). Each value_if_trueN corresponds with a condition logical_testN. Result to be returned if logical_testN evaluates to TRUE. Value_if_true2…value_if_true127 (optional) Result to be returned if logical_test1 evaluates to TRUE. IFS(logical_test1, value_if_true1,, ,…)Ĭondition that evaluates to TRUE or FALSE.
