IBM's Toolbox for Java does not fully support the structure of the QDLS File System. However most features in Surveyor/400 seem to work with QDLS as long as you follow the below QDLS rules.
Also keep in mind that if IBM would stop supporting QDLS, our product would also stop supporting it. So use it at your own risk.
iSeries rules
All file names must have no more than 8 characters. In addition to the 8 characters you may also have a 3 character extension.
Folder names must be no more than 8 characters.
All files written to QDLS are in uppercase, even if you specify lower case.
Surveyor rules
When using EXPSPL, EXPDTA, and IMPDTA with a specification name, the entire path must be upper case '/QDLS/MYFOLDER/DEMOIMP.IMP'
You really can't use EXPSPL unless you are exporting a single spooled file with an 8 character name. If you are exporting multiple spooled files to a folder, our generated names will be too long. |
