Mark,
Thanks, nice resource. Surprising what's buried at boulder if you care
to dig.

Hi, Peter:

By "shared objects" perhaps you mean "shared libraries" (a Unix term for
DLLs or *SRVPGMs)? If so, try this:

I have made calls from RPG to run Unix type programs via QP2SHELL or

For example, I use this to run a zip routine as well as several of the

Unix type routines that come shipped.

I am entertaining a similar approach to call a licensed post coding
routine which presently runs on a pSeries.
In essence, I wish to keep it simple by simply porting the binary

code.

This question is not strictly RPG so I beg some tolerance.
If the product, as it runs on the pSeries, involves shared objects, is

it even possible to run it in the iSeries PASE environment?

If not, then does anyone have experience in making calls from RPG on a

regular iSeries partition into a native Unix partition configured on
the same box?
