The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
David,
You may want to read up on XML. It's not rocket science by any stretch
of the imagination.
http://www.w3schools.com/xml/default.asp is a great
place to start.

Subject: Fw: Write to a XML document
Nearly 2 years ago the first JAVA developer arrived in our service and
we started our own developement of our web site.
Us RPG programmers have been creating a kind of text files with this
kind of format to the IFS, for the JAVA guy to exploit :
+source(tSource)
|library=QSYS
|file=QRPGLESRC
|member=M1
+procedure(tProcedure)
|name=AcqAdrP
|descriptif= line 1
|descriptif= line 2,etc
-procedure
-source
I've only just discovered that these files are then converted to XML.
This raises a numger of problems. I'm having difficulty understanding
why we don't just write directly to XML. Something to do with validity
checking. Can anyone explain this to me in simple terms ?
Thanks
