RE: Generic java class that will allow RPG/RPGSQLE program to access non-iSeries Data

David its very simple,  RPGLE to Java using Prototypes, I do it for sending
Http/s requests, XML Parsing and it seems like its very efficient way of
doing things, compare to using any low level APIs (no offense) or third
party solutions which I cannot even maintain. Here is a great simple article
to start it.  If you know java then this is all you need to start building
complex procedures.

Another possibility ... and I have *ZERO* idea how hard this would be to
implement .. would be to try and do the JDBC request to the other
database directly from RPG using prototyped java calls.

Just a thought.
