<div><p>The record class allows the Java™ program to process data described by
the record format class. </p>
<div class="section"><p><a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/Record.html#NAVBAR_TOP">Record</a> class</p>
<p>Data is converted between byte arrays
containing the server data and Java objects. Methods are provided in the
record class to do the following:</p>
<ul><li><a href="dtadrtv.htm#dtadrtv">Retrieve the contents</a> of a field,
by index or by name, as a Java object.</li>
<li><a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/Record.html#GETNUMBEROFFIELDS()"> Retrieve the number</a> of fields in the record.</li>
<li><a href="dtadset.htm#dtadset">Set the contents</a> of a field,
by index or by name, with a Java object.</li>
<li>Retrieve the contents of the record as server data <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/Record.html#GETCONTENTS()">into
a byte array or output stream</a>.</li>
<li>Set the contents of the record <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/Record.html#SETCONTENTS(BYTE[])">from a byte array or an input stream</a>.</li>
<li>Convert the contents of the record <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/Record.html#TOSTRING()">to a String.</a></li>
</ul>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example: Reading a record</h4><p>The following example
uses the record format created in the <a href="dtadrfmt.htm#dtadrfmt">record
format</a> example:</p>
<pre> // Assume data queue setup work has already been done. Now read a
// record from the data queue.
DataQueueEntry dqe = dq.read();
// The data from the data queue is now in a data queue entry. Get
// the data out of the data queue entry and put it in the record.
// We obtain a default record from the record format object and
// initialize it with the data from the data queue entry.
Record dqRecord = rf.getNewRecord(dqe.getData());
// Now that the data is in the record, pull the data out one
// field at a time, converting the data as it is removed. The result
// is data in a Java object that the program can now process.
Integer msgNumber = (Integer) dqRecord.getField("msgNumber");
String msgTime = (String) dqRecord.getField("msgTime");
String msgText = (String) dqRecord.getField("msgText");</pre>
