Subject:Accessing Stylus via AS400 Author:Jane De Guia Date:28 Feb 2005 11:04 AM
Hi,
I'm currently evaluating this software. I'm not familiar with Stylus yet and doesn't have time to explore. I'm not sure if we can access this software through CL/AS400 command for our batch processing. We are currently converting a flat file to XML manually (i.e. hardcoding the program). These information were not validated against the schema and therefore being rejected by the third party picking up this record. Is there an interface with AS400 so we can convert the flat file to XML (and validated) via stylus and return it back to AS400 automatically through batch processing?
Also, I tried connecting to IBM DB2 and received the following message:
java.sql.SQLException: [StylusStudio][DB2 JDBC Driver]Transliteration failed, reason: invalid UTF8 data

Take a look in the online help how to use Stylus Studio Java API
to run the converters

Be sure to have installed the JVM multi language support.

Hi Ivan,
I'm using :
//UNIDEV01:446;locationName=UNIDEV01;collectionId=SQAMR5ZZOJ;packageName=SFt3d;CreateDefaultPackage=TRUE
UNIDEV01 - The AS400 hostname, Also it's the locationName that i used (retrieve from WRKRDBDIRE as the *local)
I'm not sure about the collectionId and the PackageName - Is this the AS400 library name and the filename respectively. OR it should be the default package setting library listed in the ODBC set up, which states as QGPL

Could you describe with more details what you mean by "access Stylus Studio"?
Which Stylus Studio task you need to perform programmatically?

Hi Ivan,
We already had the XML type files residing in the iseries. These files (could be 100's of them) is being reported without validation and therefore being rejected when the third party reads these files. we wanted to know if we can run and use the studio to do the validation within the iseries automatically for all these files so that the third party can retrieve the validated file.
Maybe there's a command we can use in AS400 to use stylus internally.
