|

|
|
<div><p>When you specify *RCD for the INCCHAR parameter, the starting position
|
||
|
|
represents the position in the buffer. The 2-byte length field of variable-length
|
||
|
|
fields must be considered when determining the position.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> Use single-byte blanks (<span>X'40'</span>) to pad variable-length fields
|
||
|
|
if the INCCHAR value spans multiple fields.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can specify variable-length fields for the INCCHAR string when you
|
||
|
|
specify a field name. The starting position represents the position in the
|
||
|
|
data portion of the variable-length from-field value. The number of bytes
|
||
|
|
that are compared is the number of bytes in the value that is specified for
|
||
|
|
the INCCHAR string. If the actual data in the variable-length from-field
|
||
|
|
is shorter than the value specified for the INCCHAR parameter, the from-field
|
||
|
|
data is padded with single-byte blanks (<span>X'40'</span>) for the comparison.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You cannot specify a zero-length string for the INCCHAR value.</p>
