Making a program dynamic

I am going to probe the great minds on this list for some ideas....

I am looking at ways to make a program more dynamic. I have a program that will 
monitor outqs for spool files through a dataq and kick off a processing 
program. The processing program then runs hard-coded processes based on the 
spool file information. Several processes could be the same or similar, but 
they could also be very different. So every time I need to add another spool 
file, I need to modify this program, recompile and test it. I would like to try 
and make this program more dynamic to eliminate this need. Can this be done 
either via RPG or Java?

What this processing program does is set up the information I need to create 
the file name and path from the job and spool file information in the dataq for 
me to make different files that are either located on the IFS or an FTP server. 
I would prefer a RPG solution but would also do this in Java.

Thanks for any help,

and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and 
better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.
