|
||
|
|
<div><p>The ILE RPG feature (an option of the IBM<sup>®</sup> WebSphere<sup>®</sup> Development Studio for iSeries™ licensed
|
||
|
|
program) provides the possibility for a user to specify a sort sequence table
|
||
|
|
and use it in comparison operations performed with non-numeric data.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For each of the supported languages, two tables (a shared-weight and unique-weight)
|
||
|
|
are included with the server. With sort sequence support you can create sort
|
||
|
|
sequence tables based on the existing ones.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The control specifications are specifications that provide the ILE RPG
|
||
|
|
for iSeries compiler
|
||
|
|
with information about your program and your server. The sort sequence used
|
||
|
|
in ILE RPG for iSeries programs
|
||
|
|
is controlled by all of the following items:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>The control specifications.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The SRTSEQ (sort sequence table) parameter on the Create RPG Module and
|
||
|
|
the Create Bound RPG Program commands.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The LANGID (language identifier) parameter on the Create RPG Module and
|
||
|
|
the Create Bound RPG Program commands.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>The alternative collating sequence field (ALTSEQ) in the control specifications
|
||
|
|
allows the following values:</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm">blank</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>No alternative collating sequence is used in the RPG program. The normal
|
||
|
|
collating sequence is used in the RPG program. The compile options SRTSEQ
|
||
|
|
and LANGID are ignored.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">*NONE</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>No alternative collating sequence is used in the RPG program. The normal
|
||
|
|
collating sequence is used in the RPG program. The compile options SRTSEQ
|
||
|
|
and LANGID are ignored.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">*SRC</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>The alternative collating sequence is used in the RPG program, according
|
||
|
|
to the tables entered at the end of the RPG program. The alternative collating
|
||
|
|
sequence table is loaded at compile time, and ordering, sorting, comparing,
|
||
|
|
and match field processing is done according to that table. <p>The SORTA and
|
||
|
|
LOOKUP operation codes do not use specified alternative collating sequence
|
||
|
|
tables.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The SRTSEQ and LANGID parameters on the Create RPG Module and
|
||
|
|
Create Bound RPG Program commands are ignored.</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">*EXT</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>The alternative collating sequence is specified outside of the RPG program.
|
||
|
|
RPG compiler imports an external sort sequence table, based on the SRTSEQ
|
||
|
|
and LANGID parameters on the Create RPG Module and the Create Bound RPG Program
|
||
|
|
commands. <p>The SORTA and LOOKUP function with the arrays and tables at compile
|
||
|
|
time and processing time take effect only when you specify D in the control
|
||
|
|
specifications.</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
</dl>
|
||
|
|
<p>The sort sequence table to be used by the program can be determined at
|
||
|
|
compile time or when the job is run. If the SRTSEQ parameter of the Create
|
||
|
|
RPG Module and Create Bound RPG Program commands:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Is set to *HEX, no sort sequence table is used.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Specifies a table name, then that table is stored with the program object
|
||
|
|
to be used when the job is run. For system-supplied default sort sequence
|
||
|
|
tables for the supported languages, refer to Sort sequence tables.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Is set to *LANGIDSHR or *LANGIDUNQ, the shared-weight or unique-weight
|
||
|
|
table for the language determined by the LANGID parameter is stored with the
|
||
|
|
program object. For a list of valid language identifiers, refer to Language
|
||
|
|
and country and region identifiers.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Is set to *JOB, the SRTSEQ parameter of the compile time job is used to
|
||
|
|
determine the sort sequence. The table is stored with the program object.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Is set to *JOBRUN, the attributes of the job running the compiled program
|
||
|
|
determine the sort sequence to be used. If the SRTSEQ attribute of the job
|
||
|
|
refers to the LANGID, the LANGID stored with the program object is used. If
|
||
|
|
the LANGID stored with the program is also *JOBRUN, the LANGID of the runtime
|
||
|
|
job is used.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Notes:</span> <ol><li>If the table to be stored with the program object at compile time does
|
||
|
|
not exist, a table defining hexadecimal sort sequence and tagged with a CCSID
|
||
|
|
value of 65535 is used.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If the sort sequence table and the CCSID of the job running the program
|
||
|
|
differ, the table is converted to the CCSID of the job.</li>

<div class="section" id="rbagsrpgc3__Header_404"><a name="rbagsrpgc3__Header_404"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectiontitle">SORTA and LOOKUP operation codes</h4><p>The
|
||
|
|
implementation of compare operation codes, match field and control field processing
|
||
|
|
with the sort sequence tables is the same for the alternative collating sequence
|
||
|
|
and for the sort sequence support. Compare operation codes are ANDxx, COMP,
|
||
|
|
CABxx, CASxx, DOUxx, DOWxx, IFxx, ORxx, and WHxx. Additional functions provided
|
||
|
|
with the SORTA and LOOKUP operation codes follow:</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm">SORTA</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>The data in the array is sorted according to the sort sequence table.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">LOOKUP</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>To provide proper table searching, the sort sequence table is used with
|
||
|
|
the search arguments in the arrays and tables. <p>The search argument and
|
||
|
|
either the table or array element are compared using the sort sequence table.</p>
|

</dd>

</dl>
|

<p>The array and table data are checked using the sort sequence
|
||

|
table, whenever ascending or descending sequence is specified. If the SRTSEQ
|
||
|
|
and LANGID parameter values resolve to retrieve the sort sequence table again
|
||
|
|
at run time, then the array and table elements are loaded without
|
||
|
|
a sequence check at the compile time. The sequence checks are performed at
|
||
|
|
run time, according to the sort sequence table.</p>
