Re: RPG to Java conversion

Databorough - the X-Analysis folks, now with Fresche Legacy - had something that would derive business rules and provide a degree of refactoring into Java - might be worth a look, although my memory might be off - it's been maybe 10 years since looking at it.

I have seen RPG converted to Java. There was an ERP package, I believe it was Intentia MoveX, which I think is now owned by Infor. When I came across MoveX, it was written in RPG. But they were trying to move it to Java. They had a converter, but the Java it produced looked a lot more like RPG than Java. I think if you want to move an application to Java, your best bet is to rewrite. But maybe Infor has the converter.

I understand the performance issue but issue is that we have to run the job
on AWS (amazon) cloud.

Its been a while I looked into it.. is there any cool new tool to convert
RPG III code into java? If not what are the best practices to convert a
RPG III program into Java? Meaning should we use anything like Entity
Framework? Idea is to convert RPG logic into Java using MYSQL database but
make sure java performs just like RPG does on as/400 :)

Please note that RPG is only reading from files and updating/insert data
into files. There is no concerns related to O/S level dependencies etc.

Is it better to code it in SQL procedure or java can perform better?
