RPGLE FTP - Get, Put, Delete check for successful transmission Part 2

First create two empty source members in a source physical file that will be used during FTP . Make sure the library of the source physical file is in your library list.

Member    Type  Text
FTP_IN    TXT   FTP Input file
FTP_OUT   TXT   FTP Output file

Now we need to override these files either in a CL or RPGLE program before using them in FTP.

OVRDBF FILE(INPUT) TOFILE(*LIBL/SRC) MBR(FTP_IN)
OVRDBF FILE(OUTPUT) TOFILE(*LIBL/SRC) MBR(FTP_OUT)

Now your sample code for the RPGLE program doing the FTP

finput     uf a e             disk    rename(src:i_rec)   
f                                     usropn                 
foutput    if a e             disk    rename(src:o_rec)   
f                                     usropn
