I understand "in" clause is not supported in JRDC, but i finally ended up using a little trick to solve the problem.
I passed the array as a single string parameter where each item is concatenated and separated by a key code. in my case I used the "#" key.
example:
'*********************
Sub callServices
'*********************
Dim cmd As DBCommand
Dim li_nservices, li_i As Int
Dim ls_service As String 'single string hosting array
li_nservices = gs_services.Size
' Create single string from list array ------------------
ls_service ="#"
For li_i = 0 To li_nservices - 1
ls_service = ls_service & gs_services.Get(li_i) & "#"
Next
cmd.Initialize
' select query --------
cmd.Name = "qservices"
cmd.Parameters = Array As Object(ls_service)
reqManager.ExecuteQuery(cmd, 0, "qservices")
End Sub
in jrdc config file your query would be:
sql.qservices = select field1, field2, field3 from table where (locate(concat('#',service,'#'),?))
I hope this may help someone else facing the same issue.
