RE: Java class return data to calling CL program

[Richard Schoen <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

These are two of my favorite CL feedback methods when I want to call a Java class and use it without involving RPG. 

Data area. Use JT400 and the data area class.

Capture STDOUT to a physical file or IFS file. Then your feedback can all be formatted and sent back with System.out.println("ORDER:123")

You can also use System.exit(x) where x is a number to send back a numeric return code that can be picked up in the java message stack.

How would you return a value from an executable Java class to a CL program?
