Re: Microsoft .NET frontending IBM i

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 The IWS functionality available since V5R4 on i creates a WSDL from 
your RPG program - I think it uses that PCML stuff. But that's a black 
box that should work.

As to black boxes - EVERYTHING is a black box in some way. Every 
programming language is a black box to generate code for some 
lower-level process. At the lowest level, assembly is a set of commands 
that get converted to machine code, in some fashion basically hidden 
from us. Black box.

Just a humble observation to add grist to the mill.
