Jon,

Thanks, you don't happen to know the issue of iSeries Magazine? I took a
look at their Web site and couldn't find it.

After playing with this some over the weekend, I am still on the fence.
It is hard to beat a Java program running in a server job waiting on a
data queue. I think that an RPGIV wrapper around the Java Mail API would
be a good choice. I was working on something more mundane -- XML
parsing.

I've played with it some David.  Haven't had any real problems to date -
but
then I haven't done that much.

I used the examples that Barbara Morris and Hans Boldt produced for
iSeries
mag as the starting point and went from there.  I have not experienced
any
problems converting varying length fields to String objects - the
compiler
did the work.  I suspect that it makes more sense to have Java build the
strings etc. to simplify the RPG interface.

Personally I think the support for creating RPG JNI routines is the most
valuable - the support for RPG creating/using Java is nice to have but I
don't see it getting a lot of use for a year or two.  I intend to play
with
the Java e-mail support from RPG when I get access to a V5 machine
again.
