RE: Service Program Vs Jar File.

They're pretty much the same concept (as long as you think of them as a
black box of functionality) but I'm not sure I'd call them the same
thing.

Subject: Service Program Vs Jar File.

I am a RPG newbie. So, here is a naive question. Are Service Programs
same
as Jar Files in Java, Or am I totally wrong? I create my  .jar files as
a
conglomeration of several .class files and then just that in all my
.java
code. I am looking for a simple example to create a service program and
use
that service program in RPGLE source member.

Thanks in advance,

Jake.
