Here are a few resources I found along the way on my "ramp up" to AS/400
Java (although I'm definitely not an expert).


Sun sites:

On-line Java tutorial:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html

Java Developer Connection Forums:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/community/forum.jshtml


Forums more specific to the AS/400:

AS/400 Java Toolbox forum:
http://as400service.ibm.com/j_dir/JTOpen.nsf/By+Category?OpenView  (if
you're trying to get on this right now, 11:05am EST  3/10/01 it seems to be
temporarily down)

Midrange Computing forum (Java Programming section):
http://www.midrangecomputing.com/forums/

NEWS/400 as400network communities and forum -- AS/400 e-developer area
(although Java section not too busy):
http://www.as400network.com/communities/  (they have a Java Tutorial in the
AS/400 e-developer area which is free it you subscribe to their magazine)


Here are some IBM Java Redbook links, although I haven't reviewed them:

"Building AS400 Applications with Java" -
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG242163.html

"Building AS400 Client-Server Applications with Java" -
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG242152.html

"Building AS400 Internet-Based Applications with Java" -
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG245337.html

"Introduction to Enterprise Javabeans for the AS400" -
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG245192.html

"Java Thin-Client Programming for a Network Computing Environment" -
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG245115.html


Here are some other links on the web, some of them very good:

Getting Started with Java(TM) Technology for AS-400 -
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/tstudio/java/index.htm

IBM Toolbox for Java -
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/toolbox/

AS/400 Toolbox for Java Programming Guide -
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v4r5/ic2924/info/java/rzahh/to
olbox.htm  (nicely organized)


I can also recommend a general Java book for beginners:

"Beginning Java 2" - by Ivor Horton - publisher WROX


... and since I'm a Borland fan, I can recommend JBuilder 4.0 Professional
as a graphical IDE for Java -
http://www.borland.com/jbuilder/


Hope that helps.
