I will make it clear.
The table name is Colors
CREATE TABLE Colors
(
Color VARCHAR(32)
)
Values in the Table are
Color
------
red
orange
blue
green
My output should be when I do a Select * from Tabname, shd be
red,orange,blue ,green
Waiting for your reply
Thanks in Advancd

Hi,
I tried doing this
SELECT replace(replace (xml2clob(xmlag g(xmlelement(NA ME a,
Color))),'<A>', ''),'</A>',' ')
FROM Colors;
It works fine with my DB2 9.5 client on my machine but does not work
with Db2 Z OS 9.1.
It gives me the following error message
SQL0171N The data type, length or value of argument "1" of routine
"REPLACE"
is incorrect. SQLSTATE=42815
SQL0171N The data type, length or value of argument "1" of routine
"REPLACE" is incorrect.
Explanation:
The data type, length or value of argument "<n>" of routine "<name>"
is
incorrect.
The statement cannot be processed.
User response:
Ensure the arguments of the routine conform to the rules of the
routine.
sqlcode: -171
sqlstate: 42815

Well, notwithstanding a simple fix for the problem you're having with
the XML function, assuming that DB2 9.1 for Z/OS supports recursive
common table expressions (CTEs), you could try the other technique
demonstrated in the earlier posting I mentioned.
--Jeff
DB2 for z/OS doesn't support casting XML data type to another data
type.
(See Table 13. Supported casts between built-in data types
on Page 80 of "DB2 Version 9.1 for z/OS SQL Reference".)
Also, DB2 for z/OS doesn't support XML2CLOB function.
I have a Table called Colors both in Db2 9.5 for LUW and DB2 9.1 on Z/OS
SELECT replace(replace (xmlagg(xmlelem ent(NAME a,NAME)),'<A>', ' ' ),'</A>',' ') FROM TECPG01.TEST111 1
It works fine with db2 on LUW but generates an error for Db2 on z/OS
saying that argument 1 of the routine REPLACE is wrong.
It was neccesary to add an XML2CLOB function on DB2 9.1 for LUW, like
this:
SELECT replace(replace (XML2CLOB(xmlag g(xmlelement(NA ME a,
color))),'<A>', ''), '</A>', ' ') FROM Colors
I got error message SQL0440N for
SELECT replace(replace (xmlagg(xmlelem ent(NAME a, color)),'<A>', ''),
'</A>', ' ') FROM Colors
SQL0440N No authorized routine named "REPLACE" of type "FUNCTION"
having compatible arguments was found. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I am trying to export data from a SQLServer database into a text file
using a stored procedure. I want to be able to read it and debug it
easily; therefore, I want all the columns to indent nicely. This means
I need to append trailing spaces to a text string (such as "Test1 ")
or append leading space in front of a text string that contains a
number (such as " 12.00"). Now, the stored procedure works fine when
I run it in Query Analyzer....

Hi - I need a function to concatenate a variable number of strings.
I have two ideas but cannot deside which way to go.
1) use the "stdarg" macros - if i use these macros it will be easy
to step through the strings, but as I see it (and I may be wrong here)I
need to pass the number of strings to the function - which is difficult in
this context.
2) using a pointer array as argument to the function. Here the length is
again a problem -...

I can't seem to find a way to concatenate strings that have nulls within the
string.
I have a string that I need another string that has nulls in it and what to
append
the 2nd string, 3 string and so forth to the 1st string.
Any ideas how to go about this?
Thanks,

Since C++ (and STL) have many ways to do string concatenation, I want
to hear (read) from you how you do to concatenate strings with other
strings and other types. The approaches I know are:
-- ostringstream
this does the job well, but:
* all types involved have to support operator<<
* we will lose some readibility in the code because we will always
have to create a temp object to do the concatenation

For the print command and concatenation, the period is difficult for
my afflicted eyes to see, but the "+" seems to work. Is this an
accepted PHP convention?
Thank you,

Hi, guys.
I'm receiving a dynamic amount of strings and from these strings I need to make a single string containing them all. However, I need to preserve the NULL characters to separate the strings. If you see this page of documentation and scroll down to the REG_MULTI_SZ entry, you'll see the layout of the string needed.
My thoughts on how I would go about this are:
var full_string // empty
foreach strings as string:

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
