Re: Socket Server Application Approach

"I* hadn't thought about an external stored procedure, and I'm not sure how
it would be called from asp.net if the procedure resides on the i - but
even so that's really much different than my server instance is it?"*

That might be a good idea. Simple to call stored procedure from VB or C#
program. Just an SQL call and no complexity of sockets. Just an RPG/ILE
program registered as a stored procedure.

Basically all that the webservice does is take an existing RPG or COBOL
program or procedure in a service program and make it callable through the

will generate what you need if your program is compiled with




PGMINFO(*PCML : *MODULE)

This compile option is available for IBM i 5.4 and up. 5.4 requires PTF
SI27065 if I remember correctly.
