    Re: RPG and RPGLE Difference

    I would say the main difference between RPG and RPGLE are:

    procedures, sub-procedures and modules exist in RPGLE but not in RPG.....

    An interactive job when run locks up the users display device and runs out of 9 times out of 10 substem QINTER. This subsystem has a class associated with it to run at a priority of 21 (I think) meaning the processer or processors give this job more attention. While a batch job runs is submitted most likely with the SBMJOB command and goes to a job queue and then to a subsytem where it will run. The batch jobs usally run at priority 60 or higher....

    So interactive job process right now instantly while a batch job may never run
    All my answers were extracted from the "Big Dummy's Guide to the As400"
    and I take no responsibility for any of them.

        Rev,

        I put this site together to help others with samples of code and basic discussions on the Iseries.......

        I dont want this to come off wrong, but it would be so much better for you if you were to look up this information on the IBM site. I can see by the questions you are asking that this is some kind of test someone has given you or possible homework. Please do your best first then come back with more specific questions and we will all be glad to help you.

        please look here for your initial queries:




        Thank you,
        Jimmy
