DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

If there is a binary zero in the string, UTL_FILE writes 
contents of this string only up to the first binary zero. 
 
Example: 
 
DECLARE outfile UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE; 
DECLARE col1data varchar(20) for bit data; 
 
CREATE TABLE forbit (col1 varchar(20) for bit data)@ 
-- 'ABC E' where the 4th byte is null char 
INSERT INTO forbit values (x'4142430045')@ 
-- after the file has been opened/setup: 
 
OPEN testcurs; 
   FETCH from testcurs into col1data; 
CLOSE testcurs; 
--stores the column in a variable 
 
SET outfile = UTL_FILE.FOPEN( dirAlias, fileName, 'w' ); 
 
CALL UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE( outfile, col1data); 
 
--Now in the file, we only see "ABC", because we stop at null. 
However, we should see "ABC^@E" ('^@' represents the null 
terminator)
