Re: Redbooks / Redpapers for i

[Jon Paris <jon.paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan,

The “Who Knew …” rebook update did not happen due to a lack of funding, but we did do two redpapers which would have formed part of that update.  They are:

APIs: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/redp4324.html?Open 

and

Exception and Error Handling: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/redp4321.html?Open

Both of those came out in the 2007/2008 timeframe.

The latest RPG content is in the new Modernization rebook which came out last year: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg248185.html
