Book Description:
Finally, there is a Pocket Developer’s Guide for System i RPG & RPGIV programming. Yes, it is in big pocket guide form and it is tutorial in nature. Along with the tutorials to help you learn the language, this guide is also packed with reference material so you do not have to switch to a new book once you learn the language. For example, there is all the reference help you need to be able to use every op-code in RPG/400 and RPGIV as well as every BIF that you may ever need to use. And the new RPGIV keywords and the exclusive ‘D’ Spec?...Yep! It’s got that too! Moreover, instead of weighing you down with pounds of paper, its convenient size will encourage you to “take it along for the ride” rather than leaving it behind and having to guess.
There are lots of RPG books but there has never been an RPG book like this. Instead of arguing about the merits of RPG/400, the cycle, and the modern feel of ILERPG, this book teaches it all. You’ll be pleased with all the valuable explanations and examples. You won’t want to put down this comprehensive guide to learning System i RPG now that you’ve got your hands on it. This book is almost 50 years overdue.
In today’s IT landscape, most System i shops support both RPG and ILE RPG. Besides its down-home writing style, the major benefit of this book is that it is built as an essential text for anyone charged with the responsibility of maintaining and extending RPG code at all levels. And that means a new approach to the historical cycle, RPG/400, basic and advanced RPGIV, Eval and extended Factor 2 operations, prototypes and procedures, free form RPG and, of course embedded SQL. It’s all in there. This Guide has an example for nearly every type of RPG operation you can imagine from interactive workstation code to subfiles, to database and device operations.
Author Brian Kelly designed this book to show you how to use RPG by working with rich examples that you’ll use over and over again. Additionally, for each example, there is the exact explanation you need to get a head start on being an RPG guru. This is the first RPG book to hand to your new developers and veterans alike. More importantly, it is the right size text for any relevant modern business programming course at your nearby university or community college.
