I am looking into reading XML data with RPG.
I have been provided with a document called 'XML Interface for RPG maps XML into DB2 UDB for AS/400' but as the introduction states, 'it is not for the faint hearted'.
One of the issues I don't quite get is the source of the XML file. It is given as an example with the following ILE code:-
the classpath to the XML document located on the AS/400 Integrated File System (IFS)
DXmlFile S 90A
INZ('/XMLRPGSample/AddressBook.xml')
I have never come across a file accessed in this way before.
How can I view my 'IFS' directories on my AS400? If I don't have one, how can I create it and put documents into it?
