Re: using HTTPAPI from RPG

I'm sure quite a few do.  It is popular and well supported
by Scott (he even has a mailing list for it).

I have my GETURI utility (similar to the HTTPAPI) in
production at a couple thousand plants and it's working
great as well.

I've found, as I'm sure Scott has, that configuring/setting
up SSL is the main issue, and this is not really an issue
with software per say.  More of an uncharted territory for
most iSeries folks.  So issues related to SSL/Certificates
really wouldn't be something caused by the software, but
lack of knowledge on how they are used on the machine
itself.

Especially if the trading partner is using a certificate
that uses a CA that isn't installed by default on the
iSeries.  Then you either have to learn how to install CAs
(which includes retrieving them from your TP) or pay
someone to do it.  :)
