If a column contains nulls and you dont include a null
indicator variable in the program, the program receives a
-305 SQLCODE.
Even if no columns allow for nulls, it may be necessary to
use the null indicator to avoid a -305 SQLCODE. For eg, if
AVG(SAL) is computed and ther eare no employees in the
department, the result is null and a null indicator must be
ccoded on the SQL statement to avoid -305.
EXEC SQL SELECT SNAME
INTO :SNAME:SNAME-INDNULL
FROM S
WHERE SN = :SN-IN
END-EXEC
If SNAME has a value, SNAME-INDNULL contains 0.
If SNAME is NULL, SNAME-INDNULL contains -2.
Similarly, Inserting a NULL also required special handling.
If you are not providing a value for SNAME, a -1 can be
moved to the null indicator associated with the SNAME
column:
MOVE -1 to SNAME-INDNULL
EXEC SQL INSERT INTO S
(SN,SNAME,STATUS,CITY) VALUE
(:SN,:SNAME:SNAME-INDNULL,:STATUS,:CITY)
END-EXEC
