Subject: Re: Dynamic program calls/run-time class names

My Fellow Geeks:

I think part of the perceived problem is that RPG-400 makes
quite a few things
difficult or impossible that are easy in virtually every
other language (i.e.,
static linking, opening files whose names are not
known until run time
without shelling out OS commands), while making other
things, things that
involve huge amounts of overhead (i.e., dynamic
call-by-name of separate
programs) absurdly easy. In this respect, Java
simply behaves like BASIC,
FORTRAN, Pascal, PL/I, C, and so
forth.
