Re: Java appliaction management

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

As far as 1 & 2..

1) Eclipse
2) Yes, since RDi is built on Eclipse

But RDi is available in three packages...
RPG and COBOL Tools
RPG and COBOL + Modernization Tools, Java Edition
RPG and COBOL + Modernization Tools, EGL Edition

Most i shops would have the first one.  Which works ok for basic Java (even
Java EE) development given eclipses built in Java development support.

The Java edition of RDi includes:

   - IBM Worklight Studio V6.0 to add support for developing hybrid mobile
   applications.
   - Also includes a significant subset of Rational Application Developer
   for WebSphere, and it includes IBM Data Studio, all in addition to
   extensive support for compiled languages development on IBM i. As such,
   this edition now provides a complete solution for developing multitier,
   multichannel applications that integrate with back-end systems implemented
   in IBM i systems
   ​.
   ​

Rational Application Developer (RAD) for WebSphere is IBM's full featured
Java development IDE.

You can probably get your feet wet with the base RDi.
