Re: Null values and WSDL2RPG and HTTPAPI?

[Thomas Raddatz <thomas.raddatz@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Charles,

I am sorry, but there is no NULL support in WSDL2RPG. That is something you 
have to do by hand.

The problem is that RPG lacks true NULL support. If I wanted to support 
NULL values I would have to generate NULL indicator fields for each XML 
element having nillable="true" because *BLANK or *ZERO values do not 
necessarily indicate a NULL value. So far I avoided these additional fields 
to keep things simple.

However I am open to any suggestions of how to add NULL support in WSDL2RPG.

Thomas.
