  • Built in Function for Testing Numeric Data

    We want to Test numeric data in Our application program.We don't want to use indictor in this case .We want to use built in Error functionality of RPGIV. Can we have built in function for Testing numeric data which is having similar functionality of TESTN opcode used in RPG/400?

      Or, you could do this. Not the most efficient code, but simple and works. Note, however, that this allows a decimal point and blanks.


      MONITOR
      EVAL WorkField = %dec(Anyfield:9: )
      ON-ERROR
      ...... do whatever
      ENDMON

        PHP Code:
        ~
              
             
        C                   Eval      Pos = %Check'0123456789' SomeString )
             
        C                   If        Pos > *Zero
              
        Process information
             C                   
        EndIf 
        All my answers were extracted from the "Big Dummy's Guide to the As400"
        and I take no responsibility for any of them.

          MONITOR
          ....
          Actually it should be pretty efficient because MONITOR is a relatively lightweight function. It doesn't add much overhead and it is probably a lot more efficient to do it this way than scanning for valid characters and then converting.
