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.
If you control both ends of the equation you may want to consider having the
RPG write to a data queue on the same machine the RPG program resides, and
then have the Java program on the remote machine listen for data queue
entries on that machine. That is one of the cool things about Java is that
you can have it running on one machine while working with "resources" (i.e.
data queues) on another.
I would make a single keyed data queue and then have the RPG and Java talk
through that, passing in/out messages into that single data queue object,
and because it is keyed you can use it for MANY processes/jobs on your
system because only the keyed entry your RPG/Java program is listening for
will be picked up. This has been successful for me the handful of times I
have implemented it.
In theory this is exactly what my RPG Chart Engine tool does except they run
on the same machine. But while I was building the RPG Chart Engine I would
run the Java on my PC and that allowed me to easily debug it (using
Eclipse). You can check out the RPG Chart Engine here:
