Re: JDBC Newbie

[Pete Helgren <Pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Luis,

I am curious why you would use JDBC from RPG.  JDBC is used to access 
DB2 from a Java program, wouldn't just using SQL in your RPG programs 
serve you better?  If you have Java classes you need to call from RPG, I 
understand that, but then the JDBC code would probably be something you 
would embed in the Java classes rather than calling JDBC classes and 
methods from RPG.
