Betreff: Re: extProc(*java) & data type for Enum

Oh my ancient brain ...

Just realized that there is an easier method built-in to RDi. Open an RPGLE
source and from the source menu select New -> Java Method Call.

Then all you have to do is point the tool at the jar file, drill down to the
method you need and tell it to generate the RPG. Voila!

Even if you don't have RDi with the new easy install it would;ld be
worthwhile for you to download the trail version and you'll have 120 days to
generate all the method calls you need. Note - the code it produces is (to
put it mildly) verbose but for cases like yours where you don't know what
the parms are ...

There was a thread on this topic a while back

Not sure if that will help though. You really need to know the data type
of the underlying value the parm is being compared to.
