<h1 class="topictitle1">Handle missing records in secondary join files</h1>
|

|
|
<div><p>The system allows you to control whether to allow defaults for
|
||
|
|
missing records in secondary files (similar to the JDFTVAL DDS keyword for
|
||
|
|
a join logical file). You can also specify that only records with defaults
|
||
|
|
be processed. This allows you to select only those records in which there
|
||
|
|
is a missing record in the secondary file.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section" id="rbafomrsjf__rbafomrsjfex1"><a name="rbafomrsjf__rbafomrsjfex1"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example: Handle missing records in secondary
|
||
|
|
join file</h4><p>This example shows how to read records from the primary
|
||
|
|
file that do not have a record in the secondary file.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">In <a href="rbafodynjfex1.htm#rbafodynjfex1">Example 1: Dynamically join database files without DDS</a>,
|
||
|
|
the JDFTVAL parameter is not specified, so the only records read are the result
|
||
|
|
of a successful join from FILEA to FILEB. If you want a list of the records
|
||
|
|
in FILEA that do not have a match in FILEB, you can specify *ONLYDFT on the
|
||
|
|
JDFTVAL parameter as shown in the this example: <pre>OVRDBF FILE(FILEA) SHARE(*YES)
|
||
|
|
OPNQRYF FILE(FILEA FILEB) FORMAT(FILEA) +
|
||
|
|
JFLD((CUST FILEB/CUST)) +
|
||
|
|
MAPFLD((CUST 'FILEA/CUST')) +
|
||
|
|
JDFTVAL(*ONLYDFT)
|
||
|
|
CALL PGM(PGME) /* Created using file FILEA as input */
|
||
|
|
CLOF OPNID(FILEA)
|
||
|
|
DLTOVR FILE(FILEA)</pre>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<p>JDFTVAL(*ONLYDFT) causes a record
|
||
|
|
to be returned to the program only when there is no equivalent record in the
|
||
|
|
secondary file (FILEB).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Because any values returned by the join operation
|
||
|
|
for the fields in FILEB are defaults, it is normal to use only the format
|
||
|
|
for FILEA. The records that appear are those that do not have a match in FILEB.
|
||
|
|
The FORMAT parameter is required whenever the FILE parameter describes more
|
||
|
|
than a single file, but the file name specified can be one of the files specified
|
||
|
|
on the FILE parameter. The program is created using FILEA.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">Conversely,
|
||
|
|
you can also get a list of all the records where there is a record in FILEB
|
||
|
|
that does not have a match in FILEA. You can do this by making the secondary
|
||
|
|
file the primary file in all the specifications. You can specify: <pre>OVRDBF FILE(FILEB) SHARE(*YES)
|
||
|
|
OPNQRYF FILE(FILEB FILEA) FORMAT(FILEB) JFLD((CUST FILEA/CUST)) +
|
||
|
|
MAPFLD((CUST 'FILEB/CUST')) JDFTVAL(*ONLYDFT)
|
||
|
|
CALL PGM(PGMF) /* Created using file FILEB as input */
|
||
|
|
CLOF OPNID(FILEB)
|
||
|
|
DLTOVR FILE(FILEB)</pre>
|
||
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The Override with Database File (OVRDBF)
|
||
|
|
command in this example uses FILE(FILEB) because it must specify the first
|
||
|
|
file on the FILE parameter of the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command. The Close
|
||
|
|
File (CLOF) command also names FILEB. The JFLD and MAPFLD parameters are also
|
||
|

changed. The program is created using FILEB.</div>
