Writing mixed text and packed decimal using JDBC and SQL to AS400 DB2

Asked by MPK1 in Programming for iSeries / AS400, DB2 Database

Tags: AS400 Toolkit, JAVA, AS400 SQL

The problem is that the target field on AS400 DB2 is a text field with some portion consisting of packed decimal data. I can use AS400PackedDecimal from the AS400 toolkit to pack the fields in Java, but writing it (using setBinaryStream method withing prepared statement), but the store will still scramble the results.

Is there method where I can suppress the ASCII to EBCDIC conversion?

             byte[] inputArray = ... //loaded elsewhere
ByteArrayInputStream istr = new ByteArrayInputStream(inputArray);
prep.setBinaryStream(9, istr); //prep is the prepared INSERT or UPDATE statement
