EVALUATION
With the last releases and technology refreshes IBM provided a lot of new SQL Services.

A lot of these Services provide functionalities that are not directly available in RPG or can only be implemented in RPG by calling complex System APIs and by using pointer handling for accessing the data.

However, now we have SQL services that can write data into the IFS or can delete old spool files or even better can convert a spool file into a PDF-Document. Since the last Technology Refresh it is also possible to send eMails or to generate *.csv files directly with SQL and IBM Services.

This session will demonstrate how RPG Programs can be simplified by just using embedded SQL and IBM Services.

Learning Objectives:
In this session you’ll learn how specific SQL Services can be implemented with embedded SQL in RPG or Cobol and how the formerly complex source code can be reduced
