Birgitta,
don't let us be stopped by a simple CCSID problem - I live in Denmark
and know what that means - it is probably the CCSID of your sourcefile
that dosn't fit your jobs CCSID.

AW: Future of RPG was: Open Access for RPG
while anybody else uses
if (abc != '123') {
in other languages
The answer may be quite easy, because neither ! nor { } nor || is
international or the same in all EBCDIC, ASCII, UNICODE schemas.
I've already problems with Release 7.1 when IBM introduced Arrays where
brackets [] are used.
If I want to create an array on my system I have to type:
CREATE TYPE MySchema/MyIntArr
AS INTEGER ARRAY ¬ 100 | ;
(instead of Array [100])
Nice, isn't it?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Okey Aaron
I try once again
why do anybody try to introduce
if aaa <> '123';
in one language
while anybody else uses
if (abc != '123') {
in other languages
the result is the same but why on earth try to introduce two standards
when you can have on - that is the basics of ISO - standardization!

Re: Future of RPG was: Open Access for RPG
I am having a hard time grasping what you are saying, but if you are
talking about doing Javascript in-line in an RPG source member, then I
still think it is a terrible idea for not only RPG but any server side
language including JSP, ASP, etc. Sure that works well for quick and
dirty pages, but it doesn't take long for the need to migrate away
from such an approach because it introduces leaky layers and
dependancy on a particular UI technology. For example, how long with
Sencha (fka ExtJS) hold the top spot on the Javascript client front?
Not forever, that is for sure. So in turn you wouldn't want ExtJS
Javascript code to be resident in your server side RPG code.
But maybe I am still not following you...

Hi Aaron,
I think that you misunderstod me, the java syntax should only be an
alternative to the free format as a syntax - off couse it should be
compiled ad bot fixed and free format.
By having the capability to code compilable code in javascript syntax
YIP's could use their skills to code in "RPG" much easier and RPG
programmers could adobt to this format maybee going from fixed format
to script format (skipping free format) and reuse their new skills
when making javasript in webpages.
