Develop a java program on as400 to create xml file from db2

I have some experience with java ee development and some web applications. Now I have to create a java program on AS400, one I have never heard before. Program is to create xml file from db2.

Do you have any idea how I should approach the development with no knowledge of AS400 and DB2?

I do appreciate any kind of suggestions and help!!!

Solution

  • Well, in general, Java, on IBM i (previously known as AS/400), is java ... and DB2 is accessed via JDBC... so there isn't a whole lot different to consider.

    You'll want to get the JT400 library for a JDBC driver. Javadocs for JT400 can be found here.

    If you have specific questions, or run into problems, consider subscribing to the JAVA400-L mailing list.
