Stored procedure configuration

 AS/400 programs do not have any external description.

The program expects data in parameters and returns results through the same parameters.

 

Only the program itself knows about the type and size of those parameters.

 

You need to describe your program, because Easycom For Delphi needs to know how to translate the information from AS/400 into PC format.

 

If your program has a variable structure depending on the value of a parameter during the CALL, you can provide multiple descriptions for the same program.

Each description will have its own procedure name.

 

The EASYCOM Stored Procedure Configuration tool allows you to describe any program on the AS/400 by giving the type and size of each parameter it expects to receive.

 

You can describe any AS/400 program written in any AS/400 language (RPG, COBOL, CL, C, etc.).

 

The only restriction is that the program must not do any screen or keyboard I/O, because it will be treated as a stored procedure, and will be an extension of the Easycom server.
