Re: JDK version on AS/400

["David Morris" <David.Morris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wayne,

It will be a huge problem unless you install the JDK first. I would
recommend
using the 1.3 JDK on both releases because JDKs are pretty much
backward
compatible. Midrange Server ran a short tip on setting up and selecting

a JDK at:

We have a Java program that uses JDBC2.0 API.  We run the program on
our
AS/400 using native JDBC driver on AS/400.  Our AS/400 version is V5R1.
 We
have set JDK1.2 on this AS/400 as default, so there is no problem at
all.

Now we are going to deploy the same Java program on other AS/400
machines
which have the older version: V4R5.  Are there any problems to use
JDBC2.0
features since JDK version on these machines is 1.18? Does JDK1.2 can
be
added for V4R5?  Does native JDBC driver on V4R5 machine compatible
for
JDBC2.0?

Thanks.
