Re: Can i use QTEMP as HttpSession -- RPG400-L

HiI already have web application which is calling RPG program and the way we
do it, we make sure that each user gets on job on AS400 and so we can add
anything in QTEMP and it is for the same user.

But, i am not working on web application, i am working on a RPG application
which wont be called from web application,

What i am trying to do it bring HttpSession type function in RPG using QTEMP
library,
What i am trying to say is how can i use QTEMP like HttpSession in a RPG
application (Not a web application),
What i want to do is store temporary information in QTEMP and then read it
back when i need it,

Subject: Can i use QTEMP as HttpSession

HiIf i am doing web development i can use HttpSession to
store temporary objects, i can use setAttribute to save object and
getAttribute to get this saved object back. I can store any kind of
information to pass along to different web pages etc.

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?
