RE: Java extensions directory vs Excel generation

So you're starting a separate JVM for every call. Then you can certainly use whatever Java properties you want. You'll also have to suffer thru the JVM startup everytime.

Yep, except I don't recommend RUNJAVA. Use QSHELL because you can capture and process STDOUT and return data from the Java call.

IE: Simulating call parm across process boundaries when calling Java.

To answer Justin's question, a single CL job stream can make multiple QSH calls to different JVM versions with different classpaths for each call.

In practice I don't usually recommend this, but it demonstrates the relative flexibility of writing simple Java programs and the possibility of actually making calls to multiple JVM versions in the same CL job.

Also performance mileage will vary depending on the number of Jar files you're using andn 32 vs 64-bit, etc., etc....

Always test as with any app 😊
