7	Length of SQL statement output	Input	Binary(4)

Default Public Authority: *USE

Threadsafe: Conditional; see Usage Notes.

The Process Extended Dynamic SQL (QSQPRCED) API provides functions to process extended dynamic SQL statements in an SQL package object. In particular, this API provides the user with the only way to do blocked INSERT using SQLDA.

Authorities and Locks

Creating an SQL package requires that you have *ADD and *READ authority to the library that will contain the package. Using an existing SQL package requires that you have *OBJOPR and *READ authority to the package. To use the PREPARE function of the API, you must have *OBJOPR and *ADD authority to the package. To use a sort sequence table, you must have *USE authority to the table and *EXECUTE authority to the library containing the table. To delete a specified package, you must have *OBJEXIST authority to the package and *EXECUTE authority to the library containing the package.

Required Parameter Group

SQL communications area

OUTPUT; CHAR(136)

This is used for returning diagnostic information. It includes the SQLCODE variable, indicating whether an error has occurred. If SQLCODE has a value of 0 after a call to this API, the function was successful.

You should have this space declared in the program that calls this API. This parameter is considered output because the API uses the space to pass back information. The format of the structure is standard and can be included using the INCLUDE SQLCA statement in an SQL program. It is described more completely in the SQL programming and DB2^® for IBM^® i SQL reference topic collections.

SQL descriptor area

INPUT; CHAR(*)

This is used for you to pass information about the variables being used on a specific SQL statement. The SQLDA is used for passing the address, data type, length, and coded character set identifier (CCSID)for variables on an OPEN, EXECUTE, FETCH, or DESCRIBE function.

The format of the structure is standard and can be included using the INCLUDE SQLDA statement in an SQL program. It is described more completely in the SQL programming and DB2 for i SQL reference topic collections.

Function template format

INPUT; CHAR(8)

The format of the function template being used. The possible values are:

SQLP0100	Basic template
SQLP0110	Extended SQLP0100 template
SQLP0200	Template for using scrollable cursors or blocked INSERT
SQLP0210	Extended SQLP0200 template
SQLP0300	Template for options that may improve query performance
SQLP0310	Extended SQLP0300 template
SQLP0400	Template for specifying additional options that apply to package creation.
SQLP0410	Extended SQLP0400 template
SQLP0500	Template for specifying the retrieval of SQL diagnostic information.

For more information, see SQLP0100 Format, SQLP0110 Format, SQLP0200 Format, SQLP0210 Format, SQLP0300 Format, SQLP0310 Format, SQLP0400 Format, SQLP0410 Format or SQLP0500 Format.

Function template

INPUT; CHAR(*)

A structure that determines the function to perform, the requested statement to process, and the SQL package to be used. This also contains the text of the statement, which is required for the PREPARE function. For the format of this parameter, see SQLP0100 Format, SQLP0110 Format, SQLP0200 Format, SQLP0210 Format, SQLP0300 Format, SQLP0310 Format, SQLP0400 Format, SQLP0410 Format or SQLP0500 Format.

Error code

I/O; CHAR(*)

The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error code parameter.

Optional Parameter Group 1

SQL statement output

OUTPUT; CHAR(*)

You should have this space declared in the program that calls this API. This parameter is considered output because the API uses the space to pass back information.

For function D, this is used for receiving SQL diagnostic information from the SQL diagnostic area. The SQL diagnostic area contains information about an SQL statement (other then a GET DIAGNOSTIC statement) that was executed prior to invoking the API.

The format of the data received in this space depends on the type of diagnostic item(s) being retrieved. You can specify statement, condition, or connection information item types to be retrieved on SQLP0500 Format template. For detailed description of the format of the retrieved data specific for an information item type, see Diagnostic Information Data Format.

This parameter is required for function D.

For functions other than D, this is an optional parameter that returns a structure with output information about the SQL statement. The number of bytes available must be set on input to the number of bytes available for the structure.

Offset		Type	Field	Use
Dec	Hex	Type	Field	Use
0	0	BINARY(4)	Number of bytes available	Indicates number of bytes available for structure
4	4	BINARY(4)	Length of structure	Indicates length of structure returned
8	8	BINARY(4)	Cursor index	Can be passed in subsequent QSQPRCED calls for this cursor using SQLP0310 Format or SQLP0410 Format to improve performance
12	C	BINARY(4)	Statement index	Can be passed in subsequent QSQPRCED calls for this statement using SQLP0310 Format or SQLP0410 Format to improve performance
16	10	BINARY(4)	Length of statement name	Length of statement name found using function A
20	14	BINARY(4)	Offset to statement name	Offset to statement name found using function A. The offset is from the beginning of the SQL statement output structure
*	*	CHAR(*)	Statement name

Length of SQL statement output

INPUT; BINARY(4)

The length of SQL statement output.

This parameter is required for function D and it must be specified for this function with the minimum value of 8. If specified for other functions, it must have a minimum value of 16.

Field Descriptions

Allow copy of data. Whether a copy of the data can be used in a SELECT statement. The valid values follow:

A	A copy of the data is used only when necessary.
S	The system determines whether to use the data retrieved directly from the database or to use a copy of the data. The decision is based on which method provides the best performance. If commitment control level is C or S and the Allow Blocking field is not L, or if the commitment control level is A or R, then a copy of the data is used only when it is necessary to run the query.
N	A copy of the data is not allowed. If a temporary copy of the data is required to perform the query, an error message is returned.

The allow copy of data value is required for function 1. It is ignored for other functions.

Allow blocking. Whether the database manager can use record blocking, and the extent to which blocking can be used for read-only cursors. The valid values follow:

S	*READ: Records are blocked for read-only retrieval of data for cursors the following conditions are met: N is specified for the commitment control field, which indicates that commitment control is not used. The cursor is declared with a FOR FETCH ONLY clause or there are no dynamic statements that could run a positioned UPDATE or DELETE statement for the cursor.
	You can specify S to improve the overall performance of queries that meet the above conditions and retrieve a large number of records.
F	*NONE: Rows are not blocked for retrieval of data for cursors. If you specify F, the following occurs: Guarantees that the data retrieved is current. May reduce the amount of time required to retrieve the first row of data for a query. Stops the database manager from retrieving a block of data rows that is not used by the program when only the first few rows of a query are retrieved before the query is closed. Can degrade the overall performance of a query that retrieves a large number of rows.
L	*ALLREAD: Rows are blocked for read-only cursors if N or C is specified on the commitment control field. All cursors in a program that are not explicitly able to be updated are opened for read-only processing even though EXECUTE or EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statements may be in the program. If you specify L, the following occurs: Allows record blocking under commitment control level C in addition to the blocking allowed for S. Can improve the performance of almost all read-only cursors in programs, but limits queries in the following ways: A ROLLBACK statement or ROLLBACK HOLD SQL statement does not reposition a read-only cursor when L is specified. Dynamic running of a positioned UPDATE or DELETE statement (for example, using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE) cannot be used to update a row in a cursor unless the DECLARE statement for the cursor includes the FOR UPDATE clause.

The allow blocking value is required for function 1. It is ignored for other functions.

Autocommit Option. When using a connection handle with SQL Server Mode, the autocommit option can be used to direct the database to handle commitment control for the connection. The valid values follow:

'0'	Autocommit is not requested
'1'	Autocommit is requested.

When requested, the database will commit or rollback activity in the QSQSRVR server job after every SQL statement operation sent by the client, when that operation performs some committable work. No commit or rollback occurs after fetch operations. If the SQLCODE indicates a failure, the database will rollback the transaction. If the SQLCODE indicates success, the transaction will be committed.

When commitment control is set to *NONE, the database upgrades the commitment control level to *CHG, in the corresponding QSQSRVR job over the span of that operation.

When the connection handle is set to 0, this field must be set to '0'. This function is only valid for SQLP0310 Format and SQLP0410 Format.

Blocking factor. The number of records to be passed on a blocked FETCH request. The same number should be used on the OPEN and the FETCH request. The blocking factor is required for functions 4 and 5. It is ignored for other functions.

Close file name. The name of the file for which all pseudo-closed open data paths should be closed. The file name must be the system file name. It cannot be an SQL long table name. If all pseudo-closed open data paths for the job are to be closed, the close file name and the close library name should be specified as *ALL. The close file name is required for function B. It is ignored for other functions.

If the close library name is *NUMBER or *THRESHOLD, then the first 4 bytes of close file name should contain an integer value. For *NUMBER, the value indicates the number of pseudo-closed cursors to close. For *THRESHOLD, the value indicates the threshold of pseudo-closed cursors that should remain following the closing of pseudo-closed cursors.

Close library name. The library of the close file name. If the close file name is specified as *ALL, the close library name should be *ALL as well. The close library name is required for function B. It is ignored for other functions.

*NUMBER indicates to close a specified number of pseudo-closed cursors. *THRESHOLD indicates to continue closing pseudo-closed cursors until a specified threshold is reached.

C	*CHG
S	*CS
A	*ALL
N	*NONE

The commitment control value is required for function 1. It is ignored for other functions.

Condition number. The number that identifies a condition for which diagnostic information items are to be retrieved from the SQL diagnostic area. See Key Values and Data Types of Condition Diagnostic Information Items for a list of the keys of the condition information item types that may be retrieved for the condition. See Key Values and Data Types of Connection Diagnostic Information Items for a list of the keys of the connection information item types that may be retrieved for the condition.

Connection Handle. The connection handle allows SQL Server Mode users to have a one-to-one correspondence with a specific QSQSRVR prestart job in the QSYSWRK subsystem.

When the negated connection handle is passed as input, serialization within the job is not held during the execution of the work handed off to the QSQSRVR job. Using the negated connection handle allows an application to achieve parallel execution across threads which are using different connection handles. If the connection handle were 14, it would be valid to input -14 if the user wanted parallel execution where other threads within this job would be allowed to execute when using a connection handle other than 14.

The Extended Dynamic Remote SQL (EDRS) APIs can be used to establish connections. Connect to EDRS Server (QxdaConnectEDRS) is used to initiate a connection to a server system. The connection handle returned by this API is valid only in the same job and activation group in which it was generated. A connection cannot span multiple jobs or activation groups. The Extended Dynamic Remote SQL (EDRS) APIs will utilize QSQSRVR jobs when SQL Server Mode is ON and a local connection is requested.

This input field is ignored when SQL Server Mode is not active. SQL Server Mode can be enabled within the job by calling the Change Job (QWTCHGJB) API. When connections are established, completion message SQL7908 is sent to the SQL Server Mode client joblog, indicating which QSQSRVR job is being used for that connection. The commitment definition is owned by the job that is indicated in this message.

This function is only valid for SQLP0310 Format and SQLP0410 Format.

Cursor Index. An optional input performance value for functions 4, 5, 6, and 8. The value from the SQL Statement Output from a previous QSQPRCED call for this cursor should be passed. By passing the cursor index the request will be processed faster, since the database manager will not need to search for the matching cursor. All other fields relevant to the cursor still need to be set. This function is only valid for SQLP0310 Format and SQLP0410 Format.

Cursor name. The name of the SQL cursor. Cursor Name or Extended Cursor Name is required for functions 4, 5, 6, and 8. It is ignored for other functions. The cursor name is limited to 18 characters when specifying it here. When using SQLP0310 Format and SQLP0410 Format, a longer cursor name can be specified by using the Length of Extended Cursor Name and Offset to Extended Cursor Name. When the Extended Cursor Name is specified, this field is ignored.

Blocked INSERT Using SQLDA Setup Requirements

Just as in the case of blocked FETCH, the support for blocked INSERT with SQLDA expects the users to have two contiguous areas. One is for the data and the other is for the indicators. The former contains rows of data (the number of rows is given on function 3 calls), and the latter contains rows of indicators.

If none of the columns is null capable, there is no need to have an indicator area. If any of the columns is null capable, all the columns should be turned into null capable (that is, sqltype in all the sqlvar entries should be an odd number), and the row indicator area should have as many indicators per row as there are columns.

In the SQLDA, the pointer sqldata in all the sqlvar entries should be pointing at the data elements for the first row. Similarly, the pointer sqlind in all the sqlvar entries should be pointing at the indicators for the first row, except in the case where there are no null-capable columns at all.

Usage Notes

This function is not threadsafe when called in the following way:

Using a Data Definition Language (DDL) SQL statement, for example: CREATE, DROP or ALTER.
