"What this programming group seems to be looking
for is object-oriented type stuff, though."

So....
J2EE/SQL is the standard in my mind.
Would I use it with my background?  No.
I would use RPGIV for my scripting/business Language.

That is not what she asked though.

I did say
--------------------
"Use RPGIV (only RPGIV with Procedures, Service Programs etc)  if you like
that course.

Websphere and Websphere studio (based on Eclipse) would also be a safe way
to go.

You want to stick to COBOL for some stuff?   Fine,  iSeries will support
that too.   You wanna do C++ ?  Fine iSeries can do that."
------------------

So I believe I answered her question correctly and also gave her the
more "Traditional" iSeries solutions also.

I am going the WebSphere Studio calling RPGIV route myself.

John, I'd like to respectfully offer a slighlty different opinion of J2EE
for the iSeries.  While I'm not dismissing the concept, how many successful
J2EE implementations have you seen on the iSeries, as opposed to
traditional
RPG/COBOL applications?
