RE: Missing from RPG/LE

Hans,
>> On the other hand, we've also been thinking of other ways to handle 
exceptions, such as TRY & CATCH statements.<<
And then will we call it RPG++? <g>
serious mode(*ON)
Which brings up a point.  Any plans to make RPG Object Oriented?  One 
of the largest roadblocks for an RPG programmer trying to learn Java 
is the OO part.  It is a totally different paradigm then what they are 
used to.  If RPG where OO, then Java would be a syntax issue.
Of course, I have no idea what the syntax of RPG++ would look like.
And ignoring all the hype (be it true or false), OO is VERY COOL 
STUFF.
serious mode(*NORMAL).
