Interesting that you are using that framework because that is exactly what
we are contemplating right now - having Java front end our business and call
RPG programs on the back-end.  We have a fairly significant investment in
RPG and RPG programmers along with a deadline to replace our existing
business systems in the next 18 months.  Replacing a system in 18 months
doesn't leave much time for learning Java, so we are seeing where we can
leverage both RPG and Java.

How exactly are you making the calls to the back-end RPG programs?  PCML?
SQL User Defined Functions?  We have done both PCML and SQL UDF's with
success but have found there are limitations that make it so you can't just
call any RPG program or service program.  For instance, one of the Java
wizards that I was using the other week didn't allow me to get the
pass-back-parm from the RPG sub proc I was calling because only an integer
can be returned (not strings, DS's, etc).  When using SQL UDF's you can't
pass by VALUE (at least in my findings).

If you could give us a couple paragraphs on the direction you took I would
be all ears!! :-)

Hi
I have developed similar kind of project using struts, basically all the
business logic is in AS400 RPGLE programs, which are developed as API, I
have jsp as front end which displays data, and then calls Action class in
struts framework(which is a
servlet) which calls a java class(to achieve MVC do not call RPG program
from servlet) which calls RPG program using JT400 it is working fine Ashish
