Flexible Input, Dazzling Output with IBM i by Rafael Victoriapereira
Link your IBM i system to the modern business server world This book presents easier and more flexible ways to get data into your IBM i system, along with rather surprising methods to export and present the vital business data it contains. You'll learn how to automate file transfers, seamlessly connect PC applications with your RPG programs, and much more. Input operations will become more flexible and user-proof, with self-correcting import processes and direct file transfers that require a minimum of user intervention. Also learn novel ways to present information: your DB2 data will look great on program-generated spreadsheets and browser-based, interactive charts. All the solutions presented are based on existing open-source tools or were created from scratch by the author. The full source code, plus sample programs that are easy to understand and adapt, are provided with the book. Readers can integrate these input/output methods into their own applications, providing flexible, integrated, and modern solutions--all from RPG ILE programs, without having to increase the application landscape complexity with new servers and programming languages.
Rafael Victória-Pereira has more than 16 years of IBM i experience, as a programmer, analyst, and manager. Over that period, he has been an active voice in the IBM i community, encouraging and helping programmers transition to ILE and free-format RPG. Rafael has written more than 50 technical articles about topics ranging from interfaces--the topic for his first book Flexible Input Dazzling Output--to modern RPG (particularly, the popular RPG Academy Tech Tip Series) and SQL (the new and successful SQL 101 Tech Tip Series). He writes in a down-to-earth, easy-to-read, practical style that's highly popular with his audience of IBM technology professionals. Rafael currently works as an Enterprise Architect at the Luis Simões Group in Portugal. His areas of expertise include programming in the IBM i native languages (RPG, CL, and DB2 SQL) and modern programming languages, such as C# and Python, as well as project management and consultancy.
