Re: orchdbutil - Documentation / escape character?

For the first question, try \ immediately before the "special" character.

I guess this can be placed in the category of an ID10T error. :oops: There is a client installation piece for the Java PACK that must be run. No one mentioned that fact. All seems to work now. Thanks again for your help.

Re: Java PACK

I appreciate the reply. The use of "I" results from the fact that I am the first one trying to use the Java PACK. No other DataStage developers have a need for it at this time. But your suggestion is good. I will ask a couple of others to attempt to pull a java stage into a parallel projec...

Java PACK

Recently the Java PACK was installed on our DataStage server. When I connect in the designer I see the stages in the palette, both for server jobs & for parallel jobs. However, when I try to drag & drop a Java stage into a parallel job, I get an error message. Unfortunately, I am not at work...

On the AS/400, the field that I want to pull is defined as character. The ODBC driver automatically performs the EBCDIC to ASCII translation, unless I choose a user-defined SQL statement and cast the field as "char(<whatever the field size is>) for bit data". Then, in DataStage I need to d...

[quote="ArndW"]mtadich, you can "fake it" and treat the binary data as if it were a string. Read the column in and declare it as CHAR of the appropriate byte-count. N.B. if you have NLS then turn off mapping for that column, otherwise it will try to interpret the field's contents...

Raw (Binary) to String

Anyone know how to perform on a binary field the equivalent of what the functions Left and Right allow one to do with a character field, i.e., peel off some proper subset of bytes from the field into another binary field? Thanks.

Good morning. Thank you very much for the response. I actually tried several telnet servers. The one that produced the results cited in my original question is no longer available to me. However, I received a similar result with the built-in telnet server that accompanies Win2000 (running as a servi...

DS 7.5 : Telnet

In a server job, I was trying to use the "Telnet before Command" feature and I cannot get it to work. I enabled trace and received the output found below. Can anyone explain the correct interpretation of the two lines following the line "Looking for Telnet prompt number 1?" Does ...
