Re: Java class return data to calling CL program

Hi David,

Yeah, theoretically ...

No theory to it. I've used message queues since 2000.

There's a better argument now to use data queues because there's less maintenance involved than there used to be. However, if you check the list where this question has appeared many times, I've always suggested message queues, but never pooh-poohed data queues, chiefly because I never saw a reason to down anyone else's ideas. Message queues are Just Another Method of IPC.

Native message queues are another possibility.

Yeah, theoretically ... but data queues are specifically intended to pass data around. Message queues aren't.
