RE: dataq between NT & AS400

[Chris Bipes <ChrisB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Client Access has Data Queue APIs.  Install Client Access on the NT server.
Our NT server uses VB for the server side web applications that intern use
the CA APIs to send the formatted data to the AS400.  The 400 processes the
request and sends the response back to a data queue, where the NT VB
application is waiting for the response.  It works most of the time.  We are
going to switch to TCP/IP sockets which should be more efficient for the NT
side.  Hopefully more stable as well.  Ken Slaugh of Chouniard and Myhre
wrote our VB interfaces to CA APIs and can help you there.  His response to
this list as well.  If you want to use a socket connection instead,  by the
way the data queue APIs use a socket connection, I can give you an RPG
socket server shell that I am currently developing with lots of help from
the RPG400-L list.

Subject: dataq between NT & AS400


Good morning,
I have been asked to determine whether it is possible to set up
dataqueues between an NT server and the AS/400.  The design requires a
brower at the client to talk to a web server application, which in turn
will call AS/400 programs.  The AS/400 programs will use dataqueues to
converse with the web server.  The web application assembles the data
into HTML and passes it along to the browser. 
Any help in this area is appreciated.  Are there products or tools to
establish and maintain the dataqueue connections?  Does anyone know of
products that use this design? Any examples or utilities that I can use
to piece this together?
Thanks
Wayne
