Re: Where's the Program Call Bean Wizard in RDP or RAD or RBD?

Hey Joe, to me whinging != bashing (I don't know how to express that in
PHP either, ha ha)

There have been a few issues brought up recently where it seems that
people would like to see the way that RDp operates to be different from
it's current design. What I'm saying is that an effective way to be heard
by development and possibly get things changed in Rational products is to
participate in the Request For Enhancement (RFE) process. Here is some
info about it the RFE process

P.S. I don't slap anyone and I'm not familiar with who Karl Rove or
Christine O'Donnell are so you lost me on that one, sorry.

Dude. Are you saying I'm whinging? When is the last time I said
anything remotely negative about the tools? I'm the biggest advocate
the Rational tools have. Feel free to check the archives. Or blog
posts. Or articles. Or books I've written, fer goshsakes! If you're
looking for someone who bashes the Rational tools, it ain't me!

Cripes. I spend years evangelizing for these tools, and then I question
one thing about the tool and suddenly you're slapping me down worse than
Karl Rove trash-talking Christine O'Donnell <grin>.

Ah Joe, you always make me hesitate to answer people's questions here...

For the program call bean wizard's dependencies I can only guess since I

have not worked on any of that code directly . However since the wizard

is available when I have RBD in the same package group as RDp and it is

not available when I have only RDp and also that the wizard has some Web

service capabilities I can only assume that the Web stuff is where the
dependencies on RAD are.

If you really do feel strongly about this then I would suggest that
whinging about it here is unlikely to change things. Opening an RFE to
request a change in the product or maybe even a PMR if you think it is a

defect (though I don't think it is) might go further...

Mike (just a messenger)

Not to pick nits, Mike, but why does it rely on web tools? Calling an
RPG program from Java doesn't have anything to do with the web. The
Program Call wizard was available in the Java perspective.

Joe

Hi Nancy,

The program call bean relies on the Web tools provided by RAD. If you
have RDp and RAD (or RBD) in the same package group it is available. Go

to File->New->Other... expand "IBM i", Expand Java and you will find

it

there.

When I had WDSC I could create a Program Call Bean in a Dynamic web
project by doing New> Other> iSeries> Java> Program Call Bean. Under
iSeries was Java, Local and Remote. In RDP the iSeries is gone, but I
have IBM i. IBM i only has Local and Remote. Where did the Java

Program

Call Bean wizard go?
