Re: CNVRTTMP.RPGLE has no xml or json -

Several times Brad.

Mostly with outfits like Walmart demanding that a web service be put in place to allow them to access X. They don't want to have to code to your requirements.

Correct as long as you can live with the SOAP/REST formats that IWS uses.

You don't always have control of this. Sometimes the party needing to use
the service dictates the format of the message/response data and if it does
not match what IWS supplies then you have to build it yourself.

Have you really run into this, Jon? This is curious to me. :)

I've worked with quite a few customer/clients and never seen the person
requesting data was able to much more than suggest possible changes
(normally because the person making the web service didn't seem to quite
understand the business side of things or DB design).

This is especially try with the amazon and magento services a lot seem to
be using.

So, if I want to provide data with an RPGLE program as a web service I

do NOT need to use YAJL nor concern myself with JSON?

But if I want to write a JSON file to the IFS then yes, the RPGLE

program must use YAJL or some method of creating the JSON file?

Hi,

The beauty of integrated web services support... the ILE program or
service program does not have to deal with XML or JSON. It just deals
with the parameters. The payload (whether XML or JSON) is handled by

the

integrated web services support.
