RE: newbie questions

Is stream i/o any different on AS400 than on PC?
I'd like to start with accessing DB2 files using C but
any AS400/C example is welcome.

Does programming in C++ on AS400 bring me any advantages
except using OO on the AS/400?

Had the same question when started.
Failed to find something useful.
I keep ILE/C Programming guide and Programmer's reference on my desktop.
Generally now for "plain" programming C is C, at least I think so.

Stream i/o is the same probably, but if you mean "record" i/o - accessing
DB2 physical files - then there are some examples in the books, of course
they are pretty poor.
If you want something particular - tell it. You'll probably get some help in
this list....
