RE: Open PDF on Android

Hi Jim,

We are using SW Velocity, it is a platform for our Android devices.
We would like to know if there is a possibility to open any Android application (in this scenario, application will open PDF document stored on Android device) running on Android Tablet. From Velocity emulator running on the same Android Tablet?

Thanks.

My first question is: How is Android connecting to IBM i? Second question is STRPCCMD needs to be on the device, ordinarily a windows system, is it installed? If my understanding is correct, it cannot be loaded into Android. Please correct me if recent iterations allow that, but I somehow doubt it.

That is of course ignoring the rather massive security issues that come along with that scheme.
