Session Abstract JP1

What's New in RPG?

In recent years RPG has continued to add new features including the latest enhancement DATA-INTO.

In this session Jon will explain how this new feature works and how you can use it to process everything from CSVs to JSON. Topics to be covered include:

  • Basic syntax and usage rules
  • Details of the supplied parsers
  • How to write your own parser to extend the functionality

Of course DATA-INTO is not the only new feature in RPG, so we'll take a few minutes to quickly run through some other recent enhancements. Topics to be covered include:

  • Fully free-form RPG - with no column limitations
  • The new ON-EXIT support for application clean-up
  • Enhancements in null-indicator support
  • Full support for longer SQL column names via ALIAS support
  • And more... if we have time ...
