Re: Why program in MI?

MI has the QPRCRTPG API, for which there is no ILE equivalent that I am
aware of. in ILE you need an ILE compiler on the system in order to create
executable code. With MI you do not need that. You call the create program
api with an array of MI statements and the system creates an executable.

I was wondering why I should learn to program in MI. Is there stuff
that can be done with MI that can't be done with RPGLE?
