Thanks.
This works on V5R3 (Have not tested on V5R4)
On 6.1 JAVA *VERSION starts qshell and displays the version
on the QSHELL screen (nothing in the joblog)
Did this change in 6.1 (or V5R4) or is there something with
the RUNJVA *VERSION I can specify to make it work
like V5R3 (Use message instead of QSHELL to display the
version)
Thanks
John

Subject: How to retrieve current default Java version
programatically
Is there a way to programmatically (CL or RPG) to retrieve
the current
default version of JAVA that is set.
I need to conditionally execute CL code based on the
current default
version of JAVA (The Java Version that will run if I were
to execute
RUNJAVA)
I know I can retrieve the version(s) of JAVA that are
installed, but I
need the current default version.
The version that is displayed by running JAVA *VERSION
Example
If CurVerJava < "1.5"
Do A
Else
Do B
Enddo
Thanks
John
