Re: Getting Windows clipboard

Thanks Roger,

I'll check it out. If that works, it could be useful in a other application I'm using.

Regardless of which API(s) I end up using I anticipate my original issue of having to eyeball some locations will remain.

If anyone has any experience with manipulating/retrieving the clipboard from RPG/ Java/ (??) on the iSeries , I'd really appreciate any input.

Thanks again,

-David.

Would the USPS tools be a help, perhaps?

Lol Scott!

Yeah, I'm already encoding addresses using a Bing-based service in conjunction with httpapi. This is for those addresses that were thrown out.

"kinda clunky"? C'mon, David, don't sell yourself short! It's extremely clunky! Haha.

Assuming the only purpose is to get the lat/lon of the address, consider calling a Geocoding webservice. That'll be 100 times easier. And since you're coding this in Java, it should be quite easy to do, find examples for, etc.

This is far from ideal (and kinda clunky), since there's a disjoint
between that program finishing execution and the 5250 session having
access to the reconfigured contents of the clipboard.
