Re: Creating an RPG web service without WDSC/RDi

[Mike Cunningham <mcunning@xxxxxxx>]

p.s. we did a small proof of concept from the InfoPath end using .net to act as the web service which did an ODBC connection to DB2 and got the data. I really don't want to need to pull .net and an IIS server into the mix if I can do it all on the iSeries and keep it simpler

When you say "RPG Stored Procedure" do you mean an SQL Stored procedure 
front ending an RPG ILE sub procedure?  Or do you mean an RPG sub 
procedure in a *SRVPGM without SQL involved at all?

You can look into RPG-XML Suite (www.rpg-xml.com) of which I am lead 
developer of.  It can facilitate pretty much ANY web service you throw 
at it, and do it in 100% RPG.  Forward your web service need to me and I 
will have my team put together a proof of concept for you.

Maybe by using an existing web service that calls RPG as a base and cut/paste/rename/edit the files in the IFS manually?  Someway that does not have the added overheard of needing to learn WDSC/RDi just to do that final step after the rpg app has been created and tested
