Product Description
This handy, desktop guide provides programming examples for nearly every AS/400 development task you face. No more rummaging around in old code to find and modify a technique you need for a new application. No more writing routines from scratch. This new guide and companion diskette puts dozens of prototypical techniques at your fingertips, ready to key in or insert directly from your development library. The contents include examples using CL, RPGIII, RPG IV, command creation, and UIM panel groups. You get more than 70 examples of essential programming techniques, all included on the companion diskette. Spiral-bound so it lays flat on your desk, The AS/400 Programmer’s Handbook is a complete reference for the AS/400 programmer.
Customer Reviews & Comments The Handbook provides working examples of solutions to real situations you will encounter as a programmer in an AS/400 environment. There are useful explanations and examples of CL & OPNQRYF & CMD that will make you more productive. The application development section covers both RPG/400 and RPG/ILE, including all three types of subfiles. Being able to compare source code for the same application in both RPG/400 and RPG/ILE is a major bonus. A definate plus for everyone still converting to ILE or supporting legacy code. The most useful information from quite a few IBM manuals is in here and indexed for quick desk reference. I coded a complex SFLSIZ=SFLPAG program just using this book.
