The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Let me elaborate on the first part for posterity. That was using VB.NET and access methods included:
--ADO.NET accessing DB2 external stored procedures
--CGI webservices
--Data queues (the Windows client for this one is quite flakey)
I need to make a slight revision to the second part. Native .NET would open up IBMi to new devs, but I question existing midrange devs moving to .NET.

Subject: RE: Visual Studio 2017 Released
Back in the days of Windows Forms apps, I considered them a viable alternative for 5250 UI apps. They were stupid simple to create and could easily be connected to RPG backend programs.
Fast forward to today, I question what Visual Studio/.NET brings to the midrange community. This coming from someone conscripted into .NET development over a decade ago.
