IBM Toolbox for Java access classes
The IBM Toolbox for Java access classes represent iSeries data
and resources. The classes work with iSeries
and AS/400e servers to provide an internet-enabled interface to
access and update server data and resources.
The following classes provide access to iSeries and AS/400e resources:
- AS400 - manages sign-on information, creates and
maintains socket connections, and sends and receives data
- SecureAS400 - enables you to use an AS400 object when
sending or receiving encrypted data
- AS400JPing - allows your Java program to query
the host servers to see which services are running and which ports are in
service
- BidiTransform - enables you to do your own
conversions of bidirectional text
Clustered
hash table classes - enables your Java program to share and replicate
nonpersistent data among the nodes in highly available clustered hash tables
- Command call - runs iSeries batch commands
- Connection pool - manages a pool of AS400
objects, which is used to share connections and manage the number of connections
a user can have to an iSeries server
- Data area - creates, accesses, and deletes data
areas
- Data conversion and description - converts and handles
data, and describes the record format of a buffer of data
- Data queues - creates, accesses, changes, and deletes
data queues
- Digital certificates - manages digital certificates
on iSeries servers
- Environment variable - manages iSeries
environment variables
- Event log - provides
a way to log exceptions and messages independent of the device used to display
them
- Exceptions - throws errors when, for example, device
errors or programming errors occur
- FTP - provides you with a programmable interface to
FTP functions
- Integrated file system - accesses files, opens files,
opens input and output streams, and lists the contents of directories
- Java application call - calls a Java program on an
iSeries server that runs on the iSeries Java virtual machine
- JDBC - accesses DB2 UDB for iSeries data
- Jobs - accesses iSeries jobs and job logs
- Messages - accesses messages and message queues on
the iSeries system
- NetServer configuration - accesses and modifies
the state and configuration of the iSeries NetServer
- Permission - displays and changes object authorities on an iSeries server
- Print - manipulates iSeries print resources
- Product license - manage licenses for iSeries
products
- Program call - calls an iSeries program
- QSYS object path name - represents objects in
the iSeries integrated file system
- Record-level access - creates, reads, updates, and
deletes iSeries files and members
- Service program call - calls an iSeries service
program
- System status - displays system status information
and allows access to system pool
information
- System values - retrieves and changes system values
and network attributes
- Trace (serviceability) - logs trace points and diagnostic
messages
- Users and groups - accesses iSeries users and groups
- User space - accesses an iSeries user space
Note: Toolbox for Java provides a second set of classes, called
the resource classes, for working with iSeries
objects and lists. The resource classes present a generic framework and consistent
programming interface for working with various iSeries objects and lists. After
reading about the classes in the access
package and the resource
package, you can choose the object that works best for your application.
