Hi.
Wasn't there once some examples on how to use the RMS interface on
page http://www.vmspython.org/doku.php?id=pythonexamples ?
I need to write some records to an indexed RMS files.
I have successfully written routines that *reads* from RMS
files sequentially, but now have to insert a number of records
in an file.
I have a record and file definition like below, but I do not get it
how to populate a record to be used with the "put()" function...
| Code: |
MEF340Rec = Struct("MEF340Rec",
String("PRODNR", 10),
String("LAND", 4),
String("ARTNR", 10),
String("RIKTNR", 2),
String("ANTAL", 4),
String("PROCIND", 1),
String("FACKNR", 2),
String("FILLER", 9))
class MEF340(IndexedFile):
Name = 'ME340A.IDX'
def __init__(self):
IndexedFile.__init__(self, MEF340.Name, MEF340Rec)
def primary_keynum(self):
return 0 |
The values comes from an Rdb SELECT statement that are
iterated through the result from a rdb.fetchall(). No problems
there, I have the values, but don't know how to get them into RMS.
I guess I have to use the record definition above in some way and
populate the PRODNR (and so on) fields. Then call put() with that
records as a parameter...
Can one just "put" records and RMS will handle the index update?
Or do I have to define the actual indexes also? I'm not interested
in searching using the indexes, just inserting a few 100s new records.
I already know that they are not violating the index...
So, what is the easiest way to write a record to an RMS file from Python?
Thanks, Jan-Erik. |

Update...
I thought about the download I made of the sources for PythonVMS
a few days ago, and took a look, and there was 3-4 test*.py files
that seems to answer my questions. I think that test1b.py has
what I need. I'll try that "Container()" function and fil in the
data got from the Rdb query...
| Code: |
import struct
from vms.rmsdef import RMS__SUC, RMS__RNF, RMS__OK_DUP
from vms.fabdef import FAB_M_PUT, FAB_M_GET, FAB_M_DEL, FAB_M_UPD, \
FAB_M_SHRPUT, FAB_M_SHRGET, FAB_M_SHRDEL, FAB_M_SHRUPD
from vms.rms.IndexedFile import IndexedFile
from construct import *
TestRec = Struct("TestRec", String("f1", 5), SLInt32("f2"), String("f3", 11))
class TestFile(IndexedFile):
Name = 'test.dat'
def __init__(self):
IndexedFile.__init__(self, TestFile.Name, TestRec)
...
...
...
if __name__=='__main__':
f = TestFile()
print
print 'Reset file'
f.reset()
print
print 'Insert a few records'
rec = Container(f1 = 'AA5AA', f2 = 5, f3 = '1234567890A')
f.put(rec)
rec = Container(f1 = 'BB2BB', f2 = 2, f3 = '1234567890B')
f.put(rec)
...
...

Follow-up...
Worked just OK. The RMS file was updated yesterday
according to the costumer requirements...  |

Hi.
> ...your example.
The code in the first post was mine.
The code in the second post is from the source code distribution... |
