<h1 class="topictitle1">Example 10: Select records using the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command</h1>
|
|
<div><p>This example shows the use of the coded character set identifiers
|
|
(CCSIDs) when you run the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command to select records.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">Each character and DBCS field in all database files is tagged
|
|
with a CCSID. This CCSID allows you to further define the data stored in the
|
|
file so that any comparison, join, or display of the fields is performed in
|
|
a meaningful way. For example, if you compare FIELD1 in FILE1 where FIELD1
|
|
has a CCSID of 37 (USA) to FIELD2 in FILE2 where FILED2 has a CCSID of 273
|
|
(Austria, Germany), appropriate mapping occurs to make the comparison meaningful. <pre>OPNQRYF FILE(FILEA FILEB) FORMAT(RESULTF) +
|
|
JFLD((FILEA/NAME FILEB/CUSTOMER))</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>If field NAME has a CCSID of 37 and field CUSTOMER has a CCSID
|
|
of 273, the mapping of either NAME or CUSTOMER is performed during processing
|
|
of the OPNQRYF command so that the join of the two fields provides a meaningful
|
|
result.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Normally, constants defined in the MAPFLD, QRYSLT, and GRPSLT
|
|
parameters are tagged with the CCSID defined to the current job. This suggests
|
|
that when two users with different job CCSIDs run the same OPNQRYF command
|
|
(or a program containing an OPNQRYF command) and the OPNQRYF command has constants
|
|
defined in it, the users can get different results because the CCSID tagged
|
|
to the constants might cause the constants to be treated differently.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">You can tag a constant with a specific CCSID by using the MAPFLD
|
|
parameter. By specifying a MAPFLD whose definition consists only of a constant
|
|
and then specifying a CCSID for the MAPFLD, the constant becomes tagged with
|
|
the CCSID specified in the MAPFLD parameter. For example: <pre>OPNQRYF FILE(FILEA) FORMAT(RESULTF) QRYSLT('NAME *EQ MAP1') +
|
|
MAPFLD((MAP1 '"Smith"' *CHAR 5 *N 37))</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">The constant <span class="q">"Smith"</span> is tagged with the CCSID 37 regardless
|
|
of the job CCSID of the user issuing the OPNQRYF command. In this example,
|
|
all users get the same result records (although the result records
|
|
would be mapped to the user's job CCSID). Conversely, if the query is specified
|
|
as: <pre>OPNQRYF FILE(FILEA) FORMAT(RESULTF) QRYSLT('NAME *EQ "Smith"')</pre>
|
|
The
|
|
results of the query might differ, depending on the job CCSID of the user
|
|
issuing the OPNQRYF command.</div>
