Re: Sun Java or Open Java on IBMi

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

My experience has been that if you find an incompatibility with IBM's J9 
JVM then reporting it to IBM support generally gets it fixed.  Sometimes 
sooner, sometimes later.  Granted that my experience was with some JRuby 
J9 issues a year or so ago and things have changed (always change) at 
IBM...but it is worth it to get a test case put together and get a PMR 
going with IBM.  They are remarkable in their responsiveness (IMHO).  
Have you tried the app in Windows or Linux using the IBM JVM?  
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/

Always worth it to find out whether it is an IBM i specific or J9 
general issue....
