RE: V5 - RPG announcements?

["Westdorp, Tom" <Tom.Westdorp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's a few:

lots of new bif's, they now seem to cover just about everything

file overrides in your F specs

/free 
goodness = 'free format RPG';
/end-free
Note:  no GOTO's or TAG's in /free stuff!

Object data type ("O") (for java classes I guess)


There's no glamour to RPG when the presenters talk to the public.  Just
Java, Domino, Linux, etc.  It does seem, however, that the RPG folks were
quite busy!!!

Subject: V5 - RPG announcements?


Did I miss something?  I thought there were supposed to be some RPGIV
enhancements in V5R1.  The one announcement I have seen so far only
mentions DDL, Java and C among others.  Will that be a separate
announcement or is it a big secret?  Are my eyes getting that bad?  Am I
misinformed?  Anybody know?
