I suggest you use a byte array in Java.  It works a lot better than a
String.

Thanks for your reply Michael_Schutte. I presume that RpgString
(RpgString = getBytes(javaString);) has to be declared a varying length
type in the RPG?


It isn't strictly required, but it's best if you want to know the length
of the Java string without having to use %TRIM.  (%TRIM might not even
give the correct length, if the Java string happened to have leading or
trailing blanks.)
