Using data pipes

RSPs use data pipes to receive data from or send results to the client application. There are two types of data pipes: input and output. Use the RSP commands described in Appendix B, “MODELRSP DB2 Output Pipe Sample RSP” to define the type of pipe (input or output) and the format of the data being transmitted. The data pipe management commands are OPENPIPE, GETPIPE, PUTPIPE, and CLOSPIPE.

This section explains input and output data pipes.

NoteAn input pipe and an output pipe can both be open simultaneously.
