This book is both a how-to manual and a comprehensive analysis of e-deployment, the innovative new strategy for putting your existing AS/400 legacy applications on the Web. The book itself is a fresh new style of writing, in keeping with the interactive nature of the Web itself: You can take a fast path through selected chapters and sections to quickly get an application on the Web, or you can take a leisurely, thorough look at the design of the software that enables this breakthrough technology, to more fully understand the process and give you a head start on developing your own e-deployment technologies. The CD-ROM that accompanies the book contains more than 10,000 lines of source code for all of the workstation, host, and middleware software required to use the e-deployment technology. All of the Java packages, including source and Java.doc (in browser-friendly HTML format) are included, along with thick- and thin-client example programs. The CD-ROM also includes an AS/400 support library, with full source, as well as the example programs used in the book. As an additional value, there is a Web site specifically for the buyers of this book. This dynamic Web site has tips and techniques, updates and enhancements to the software, and a forum for ongoing discussion of the redeployment process. So if you are an AS/400 application developer who wants to quickly and economically transform existing legacy programs from green-screens to either thick-client or browser-based distributed applications, with minimal disruption to users, this package of book plus software plus ongoing, interactive Web support will help you achieve a successful redeployment of your legacy systems. Upon completion of this book, you will be able to: Identify the benefits of application modernization to your business, assess the impact of and conflicts between the available application modernization technologies, understand the various network architectures, including client/server, SQL, ODBC, Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), and browser-based solutions, understand the various browser-based solutions, including applets, Common Gateway Interface (CGI), servlets, and JavaServer Pages (JSPs). You will be able to plan a flexible, staged conversion of your systems from green-screens to the combination of user interfaces your business needs, transform an existing monolithic RPG program into a flexible application client, quickly build a display file proxy object, quickly design and deploy a green-screen user interface server; a thick-client user interface server, using the Java Swing, classes; or a browser-based user interface server, using servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs). It will also teach you how to use FTP and Windows Explorer as part of a distributed application development environment, install, test, and configure the Java Development Kit (JDK) and associated extensions, create and test a Swing application on the workstation, configure and run IBM's HTTP Server and IBM's WebSphere Application Server, and create and test a servlet and JavaServer Page (JSP) application on the AS/400.
