Joe,

In order for your tool to work, does it need the actual DDS source for it 
to convert?  kinda like webfacing does?

Subject
RE: JAVA calling an RPG program






Al, since I moderate this list I try not to plug my product or services
very often, but it looks like this is a perfect fit for my PSC/400
product.  PSC/400 takes your applications and converts them so that they
can run in a browser using pure J2EE (JSP Model II) architecture.  The
programs once converted can run either in from a normal 5250 session or
in a browser.

The beauty of the PSC/400 approach, especially in large shops, is how
easily it can be inserted into your standard program development
procedures.  Unlike other tools, PSC/400 conversion is done with a
single OS/400 command that converts the program and generates all the
objects required to run under WebSphere.  A second command can then be
used to hot-deploy those objects directly into the WebSphere
environment.

I have a client who is an ISV with well over a thousand display programs
who has integrated the PSC/400 conversion directly into their
development cycle.  The conversion is completely transparent to the
application developers, and the program is automatically web enabled.

If this option interests you, please feel free to contact me directly,
or review the website at http://www.plutabrothers.com.  We're going to
have some brand new order-entry demos up by the end of the month which
will showcase many of the new capabilities, which include the ability to
add images directly to your pages and to highly customize the web
appearance of the screens to make very cluttered 5250 screens look as if
they were written for the web.
