The book you're looking at is not the one, but it does pay homage to it.
"Application Development by Example" does not expect that you've already
developed RPG applications. In contrast, your link "ILE Application
Development Example" does.
From the ILE link:
Who Should Use This Book
The intended audience for this book is RPG application programmers who are
interested
in using ILE but who are not very familiar with it. Programmers writing in
other languages may also find the examples helpful in understanding the
following
things:
What ILE is
How it works
How ILE affects programs developed in languages other than RPG
This book is not a revision, an update, or a new edition of Application
Development
by Example. That manual is a tutorial that introduces the novice to
programming
utilities on the AS/400 system and explains how to design and develop a
simple
OPM application.
This book, by contrast, focuses on an ILE application. Reading the
Application
Development by Example book before reading this book may be helpful.
However,
it is not necessary, because programming requirements in ILE are different
from
those in OPM.
This book assumes that you have already developed RPG applications. It
does not
assume that you have read the ILE Concepts manual, although you are
encouraged
to do so. Understanding the example contained in this book and the
supporting
discussions may help you understand the material in the concepts manual
better.
