...it's probably unfortunate that you found AngularJS and not Angular and wasted your time with that. The learning curve is steep but Angular is easier and faster to get started with and Single Page Web-apps are, IMO, definitely better than the alternative. Maybe give it another try later 🙂 I have used it for quite a few years so can maybe help if you get stuck.

I went with Angular as a trial.

In the last 20-minutes or so, I've decided it was a waste of time and the existing CGIDEV2 will stay as is.

You definitely shouldn't be using AngularJS, it's long since been deprecated by Angular (no JS), which is now some 12 versions further on than the original. It's also alot nicer to use and with its CLI, you can get a skeleton project up and running quite quickly, although after that, the learning curve is steep!

Subject: [WEB400] AngularJS

I'm using AngularJS to replace a CGIDEV2 application. So far, it is not working out with the time I've wasted on it.

The $http post doesn't want to pass parms to the RPGLE routines. I can see the routine trying, but the POST variables aren't there.

I have the following:
var data = {
pagectl:"LOGIN",
pagesub1:"VALIDATE",
username: username,
password: password
};
var config= {
headers: {"Content-Type": "application/json"}
};
$http( { url:'/cgi-bin/wqa0100c',
method:"POST",
headers: {"Content-Type": "application/json"},
data: data
}
)
.success(function(response) {
console.log(response);
if( response.status=="OK" ) {
smn=response.smn;
slname=response.name;
} else {
$rootScope.error=response.errmsg;
}
});

The data isn't seen by the RPGLE routine. I can call it from the webbrowser and pass parameters as a GET process, no issue.
The same chunk of code is running in production now with the CGIDEV2 processes and is access via AJAX.

Any ideas?
