Re: Can i use QTEMP as HttpSession

HiI am not trying to use it in Webapplication, but in RPG application, i
would like to save some user settings or pass parameters from one screen to
other or save some temporary information, if i am doing web development i
would use HttpSession for this, when developing in RPG i would like to use
QTEMP library as i would use HttpSession.
HttpSession has methods to add or remove objects, i would like to do some
thing similar in QTEMP a service program to add or delete objects

hi Ash,

The HTTP server can potentially serve each request from the browser from
a separate job. And since separate jobs have separate QTEMP libraries,
QTEMP doesn't work well in a web application.

Can i use QTEMP in same way, off course there are no methods to do so, i

was

thinking like creating a table with key and value, but this would not

handle

various data types, i wont be able to save char, or decimal into to.

But this would be still useful to save all information as char and then
write and read from this table using a service program or copy book
function.

Any suggestions, has anyone done some thing like this before?
