MI Module

[bvining@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Mike,

IBM does not provide a method by which you can create MI modules.

As MI can be directly imbedded in ILE C, ILE RPG, ILE COBOL, and even
ILE CL I don't believe there is any compelling reason for creating an
ILE compiler just in order to generate MI modules.  What problem are you
trying to address that cannot be handled by MI within one of the
other supported languages of your ILE framework?

For OPM IBM did provide an API to create MI programs, but that was at
least in part due to the very limited ability to imbed MI in other
high level languages.

Please note that the above opinion does not mean that I don't see a
need for MI and the ability to generate ILE solutions directly.  Rather
that I just don't see a strong need for MI modules in and of themselves.
