I don't really understand what the issue is here. Are you intending to
rewrite your server application entirely in Java? If so, I don't see a
problem with invoking the existing exits using JNI possibly through a small
intermediate RPGLE "glue" program depending on the data types involved. But
maybe I'm missing something.

Subject: Applications with exit programs

We have an application that currently uses a Java client communicating
(via a proprietary protocol over TCP/IP) with an ILE server (mixed C and
RPG). (It evolved from one with a Smalltalk client and an OPM RPG
server, which initially communicated over APPC/APPN.)

The server has several exit hooks built into it, for both security and
integration with other applications. More specifically, there are hooks
on incoming client requests, that can modify them, or propagate data
from them into other applications, or block them entirely, and hooks on
server responses, that can censor the data, or propagate it to other
applications.

We are contemplating the possibility of re-engineering this application
to use SQL through the Toolbox classes. But is there a way to do this
and keep the extensive exit program capabilities?
