Steve, you can already code in Java and C in i. Why do you
want to drop RPG? You have a problem with freedom of choice?
What makes Steve so cranky? I don't know - maybe just his personality.
The new Power Equation announcements really emphasize that servers and
blades are defined first by hardware and virtual partition technology
and second by operating system. Pick your server (or blade) model, then
add partitions and operating systems, then add runtime environments,
then add applications.
In the case of IBM i, you get a lot of choices in runtime environments.
Java virtual machine and native virtual machine. PASE is a virtual
machine too. You could even say that QSHELL and PHP and Net.Data and
Domino and J2EE Application Servers are virtual machines.
The physical and virtual layers go something like this:
-Power Architecture
-Virtual Partitions and Related Technology
-Operating Systems
-Virtual Runtime Environments (native, Java, PASE, etc.)
-Applications
If you don't like the languages and developer tools in the native
virtual machine, then choose one of the others, or use a mixture.
