java invoked rpg program: recommended error handling

i've been asked to develop an RPG program that will be invoked from the java
side, a first for me. Now that I'm close to having the  program
developed I want to turn my attention to error handling and, or, debug
issues that might arise.

What subsystem will run the rpg program? How is the job name given? How do
we see the job log? Is there a recommended method of error handling and
error logging? Is there an IBM manual that reviews the recommended
techniques? For example I'll be curious to see what values are passed fromt
he java side of things..how would I go about seeing those values? What if
there is an abend of the RPG..where would I go to see those messages? etc.

Thanks

Re: java invoked rpg program: recommended error handling

Some things depend on how the RPG program will be invoked. Are you using SQL Stored Procedures or RPC or
PCML/XPCML? We need more info to give some reasonable answers.

Re: java invoked rpg program: recommended error handling

Not to be a pain or anything, but I think you'd get a better response on 
JAVA400-L or RPG400-L.  It's a little off-topic for the WDSCI list, I think.

Re: java invoked rpg program: recommended error handling

It will not be sql stored procedures. But I'll have to get back with the how
it's invoked. thanks for making the distinction.

Screen Designer - Resequence


Hi everyone,

I am using the screen designer in RDi and have added a number of fields
to a screen. The new fields are in the middle of the screen, but the new
source lines are added at the end of the format. Is there any way to
re-sequence the source by line/column, like SDA does?

Best regards,

Re: Screen Designer - Resequence

In the code designer you are able to right click and reorder the fields 
maybe it is the same for the RDi

Get a connection from LPEX editor

Hi,
I am using the LPEX editor to edit a source member on the iSeries. 
I would like to define my own User Action that retrieves some data from a file.
So I have implemented LpexAction, but I don't know how to retrieve the 
connection. 

For example when the user presses some key combination I would like to retrieve
the same connection(or at least the attributes) of the connection that is being 
used to update the member. I would then like to query a file and insert 
some text.

Thanks

RSE in new window throwing an error when attempting to open file.

I'm using WDSC 7 with all the latest updates.  Here's the problem.  I have 
my main workbench open and go to Window -> New Window.  I then have the 
RSE open.  So I pick the correct iSeries from the list, go to the iSeries 
Objects and find my user library.  I then expand it to source.  I go down 
and find the file that I want to work on and double click it.  When I do 
that I get an error box that comes up and says...  Operation failed. File 
system input or output error.

When I click the details button it says Message reported from file system: 
java.lang.NullPointerException. 

I can open and close files in the main window just fine, but the new 
window isn't working.  I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting but 
nothing.  The last time it happened I think I rebooted and it was ok after 
that.  I'm going to try to reboot now and see if that solves it.   If 
anybody has any thoughts I'd greatly appreciate it.  By the way, I have 
dual screens set up so that I can be looking at 2 sets of program code on 
one screen and a couple more on the other if I find myself into a complex 
issue...but I digress.  I wasn't sure if having two screens would have 
anything to do with it?

Thanks
