This intermediate class covers the Integrated Language Environment – modular programming, procedures, service programs, and activation groups. This class shows you how to exploit the “new” RPG syntax to take advantage of the benefits of modular procedures, code reuse, and service programs.
The class will bring you completely up to date on all the new features of the last few releases. The class goes beyond RPG IV syntax, concentrating on ILE architecture.
Recommended schedule: 3 days
Who Should Attend This class is for existing RPG IV (ILE RPG/400) programmers who want to learn how to program modern RPG applications using a modular environment.
