iLibCall fails on 64-bt Python versions

[Kevin Adler]

All calls to XMLSERVICE through iLibCall fail with *NODATA. Other transports are unaffected.

Example:

from itoolkit import *
from itoolkit.lib.ilibcall import *

itransport = iLibCall()
itool = iToolKit()

itool.add(iCmd5250('wrkactjob', 'WRKACTJOB'))
print(itool.xml_in())
itool.call(itransport)
wrkactjob = itool.dict_out('wrkactjob')
print(wrkactjob)

Output:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xmlservice><sh error="fast" var="wrkactjob"><![CDATA[/QOpenSys/usr/bin/system WRKACTJOB]]></sh></xmlservice>

{'error': {'error': '*NODATA', 'wrkactjob': {...}}}

This is an upstream XMLSERVICE bug: https://bitbucket.org/inext/xmlservice-rpg/issues/17/calling-xmlservice-from-a-64-bit-pase-job

For now, the workaround is to use the database transport:

# Instead of this
from itoolkit.lib.ilibcall import *
itransport = iLibCall()

# Do this
from itoolkit.db2.idb2call import *
itransport = iDb2Call()
