well. Perhaps mine also work well so that there is space for more than

Hah!  You may well be right, Marc!

In fact, when my RPG/Java 3-tier system needs to speak to your EJB-based
system, chances are I'll be using a Java class to transfer XML to you to
do it (although it may be XML-RPC instead of a Web Service, and I'll
probably generate the XML myself in RPG <grin>).

Do you use XML-RPC because its easier to generate the XML when not having an API for it? Or is it because of the performance advantage, which makes XML-RPC a really useful option in the land of http based remote protcols. Are there any APIs for RPG when it comes to XML-RPC or SOAP at all? (sorry, but this is really a home match for java isnt it? ;-))

And i just want to make sure that i dont defend every piece in the java world. Lets take EntityBeans in their current manifestation. Its really a painfull spec.

And we totally agree regarding the DB2 for iSeries. I have never seen a more robust database on any platform. This is why i love this machine, but i still think that the java implementation could be faster, but i have not benchmarked this on various iSeries machines, so its just a feeling.

Peace, Love and IBM ;-)
