RE: OO in RPG

["Steve Brazzell" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Brad,

Using ILE is good advice--no argument there--but just how does this "get you
close" to OO?  Perhaps you could elaborate a little on this as, IMHO,
RPG-ILE has no OO features, to speak of.

Yes, use ILE (suprocedures, service programs mainly).  It'll get you close,
but it's not true OO (Object Overkill.. <bg>).
