Sort sequence support in other system components

Sort sequence support is found in these components of the system.

• CRTCLPGM (Create Control Language Program) command

  The LANGID and SRTSEQ parameters are supported.

• DSPPGM (Display Program) command

  The LANGID and SRTSEQ values that were specified when the program was created are displayed.

• CRTDSPF (Create Display File) command

  The LANGID and SRTSEQ parameters are supported. The values of the RANGE, VALUES, and COMP keywords are validated when the display file is compiled.

• High-level languages

  Using ILE COBOL and ILE RPG IV languages, you can specify SRTSEQ and LANGID values directly on the Create Bound Program (CRTBNDXXX) commands. Original Program Model RPG and COBOL compilers use the Create Program (CRTXXXPGM) commands. With ILE C, you can also specify SRTSEQ and LANGID values when you create a locale. You can then associate the locale with a program.

• iSeries™ Access

  The transfer function allows a sort sequence table to be specified when performing queries on database files and SQL tables.
