Book & CD-ROM. This guide enables programmers to develop fully functional e-business solutions using nothing more than RPG and the web facilities already included in OS/400. The basics of HTML, JavaScript, and HTTP are covered first, then the book explores how to program RPG to drive the web applications users want to develop. Using the power and stability of the AS/400 and an existing knowledge of RPG, programmers can enhance their companys exposure and profitability by developing robust e-business solutions.The accompanying CD-ROM contains full source for examples given in the book, including binder language source for service programs; /COPY prototype source; DDS for physical files, logical files, and external data structure; HTML source and images; module source; and complete RPG source for all e-RPG programs.

Application development is a key part of IBM® i businesses. The IBM i operating system is a modern, robust platform to create and develop applications. The RPG language has been around for a long time, but is still being transformed into a modern business language. This IBM Redbooks® publication is focused on helping the IBM i development community understand the modern RPG language. The world of application development has been rapidly changing over the past years. The good news is that IBM i has been changing right along with it, and has made significant changes to the RPG language. This book is intended to help developers understand what modern RPG looks like and how to move from older versions of RPG to a newer, modern version. Additionally, it covers the basics of Integrated Language Environment® (ILE), interfacing with many other languages, and the best tools for doing development on IBM i. Using modern tools, methodologies, and languages are key to continuing to stay relevant in today's world. Being able to find the right talent for your company is key to your continued success. Using the guidelines and principles in this book can help set you up to find that talent today and into the future. This publication is the result of work that was done by IBM, industry experts, business partners, and some of the original authors of the first edition of this book. This information is important not only for developers, but also business decision makers (CIO for example) to understand that the IBM i is not an 'old' system. IBM i has modern languages and tools. It is a matter of what you choose to do with the IBM i that defines its age.

Focusing strictly on teaching free-format RPG programming methods, this book will help programmers wishing to upgrade their skills This how-to guide offers a concise and thorough introduction to the increased productivity, better readability, and easier program maintenance that comes with the free-format style of programming in RPG IV. Although free-format information is available in IBM manuals, it is not separated from everything else, requiring hours of tedious research to track down the information needed. This book provides everything you need to know to write RPG IV in the free-format style. Author Jim Martin not only teaches rules and syntax, but also explains how this modern style of coding has the potential to improve overall programmer productivity--from initial development through maintenance. He methodically covers the many style issues, such as named indicators and built-in functions, and addresses topics including input and output, program flow, data manipulation, math operations, prototyping, and APIs. This third edition is updated to V7.1 of the IBM i operating system on IBM Power machines. An added chapter explains the new free-format H, F, D, and P specifications introduced by IBM in Technology Refresh 7, and programming examples throughout the book are updated to reflect the new specifications.

Database Design and Programming for DB2/400 is a comprehensive introduction to the design and implementation of application databases on IBM's AS/400. This clear and authoritative text teaches you the following essential skills: Coding Data Description Specifications (DDS) for physical and logical files, entering CL commands to create DB2/400 files from DDS, using field reference files, accessing database files from RPG IV, RPG/400, COBOL/400, and other AS/400 high-level languages, the Relational Database Model as a foundation for DB2/400 and database design, practical database design and data modeling, using SQL/400 to define and access database files, advanced DB2/400 features (including commitment control, the Open Query File command, database constraints, triggers, distributed database access, and others), database security, and data backup and recovery. Paul Conte, a leading DB2/400 authority with extensive application development experience, provides easy-to-follow instruction in the proper way to create efficient, flexible databases on the AS/400. His explanations and advice assure that you'll handle your design and coding challenges with confidence and professional-level techniques. This book provides complete coverage of both DDS, the traditional approach to defining DB2/400 files, and of SQL/400, the industry-standard database language that is IBM's strategic language for the future of DB2/400. With this text, you can be sure of handling not only existing application databases, but also developing new SQL/400 databases. These skills will put you in the forefront of AS/400 application developers. Database Design and Programming for DB2/400 also provides an excellentintroduction to practical database design techniques. You get a solid introduction to the relational database model, which underlies the whole DB2/400 architecture and the SQL language. On that foundation, the book explains a step-by-step method of modeling an organization's database requirements and developing a design for the necessary database files. The text is designed for college-level courses and for independent study. Each chapter has numerous examples and exercises. The material is organized into four parts - DDS, database design, SQL, and advanced DB2/400 features - so you can focus on particular topics as needed. Appendices provide extensive reference material. You can use the book as your single DB2/400 resource, eliminating the need for many IBM manuals. You will find Database Design and Programming for DB2/400 immediately useful, whether you're just beginning to learn DB2/400 or you are an experienced developer. You will turn to this book time and time again for advice on the best way to design and program DB2/400 databases.
