RE: SQL CLI & MS-SQL Server

[Tom Daly <Tdaly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Eric.  I've been searching around for a DRDA add-on for SQLServer but
it seems whatever I find is for a DRDA "application requester" rather than
an "application server"... there doesn't seem to be any DRDA app server
available for NT.  Bummer.

Which makes me ask "what's the point of CLI"?

I like the idea of using Java but that's not an option.

Tom

 |  Tom,
 |
 |  Sorry, but IBM uses DRDA, which is not natively supported by M$.  I
 |  understand that products exist to add DRDA services to
 |  SqlServer, but I
 |  can't give you any recommendations.  A potential
 |  alternative,  I understand
 |  that V5R1 supports RPG calls to Java methods, so possibly
 |  you could write a
 |  JDBC interface for RPG.

 |
 |  Hi,
 |
 |  Is it possible to use the CLI api's to access an MS-SQL
 |  server or am I just
 |  wasting my time?  I've been tinkering around with the
 |  example program from
 |  the "sorcerer's guide" and consistently get a
 |  communications error.  I did a
 |  netstat on the NT machine and see the 400 connecting.  In
 |  the failing
 |  program the SQLCODE is -30080 and SQLSTATE is 08001.  My
 |  joblog shows
 |  CPF9176 - DDM communications ended abnormally...   What's this DDM
 |  business???  Do I need to install some DDM Server software
 |  on the NT box?
 |
 |  Any ideas/help/insight appreciated.
 |
 |
 |  Tom
