Java client sending to AS/400 dataq

["Kathleen Kostuck" <kkostuck@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All!

Has anyone written to an AS/400 data queue from a Java client on a PC using
sockets?  

The client will be sending a part number, followed by a (variable) list of
component parts.  The Java programmer wants to send one big variable length
entry to the 400.
 
I think that, from a 400 design point of view, it might be best to receive
one entry per part, one entry per component part, rather than parsing out
one big entry (and risk exceeding the max entry length).  

Can anyone tell me if there is a big performance variance, and would it be
prohibitive?

Please share _any_ experiences or observations that you think might be
helpful to know.  This is brand new stuff for us.

TIA

Kathleen Kostuck
