Development tool provider SystemObjects is expected to announce a new tool that will allow iSeries shops to deliver AJAX capabilities in applications that have been modernized with its Jaci400 tool. AJAX, an acronym for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, isn't so much a new technology as a collection of existing technologies that allow developers to create Web interfaces that behave much more like Windows programs running locally, instead of server-based applications running across a million miles of IP lines.
System Objects is delivering the new AJAX capability as an optional component of its Jaci400 Generator module. The Jaci400 Generator is one of five modules in the Jaci400 suite; the others are Conversion, for converting 5250 applications into HTML; Development, for developing WebSphere or Tomcat apps using RPG or COBOL in place of Java; Generator for generating source code for Jaci400 applications; Portlet for running Jaci400 applications in WebSphere Portal; and Deployment, the run-time component generating HTML screens from legacy programs and providing printer connectivity.
System Objects has several demos on its Web site that show how the new AJAX capability can be used to create Web applications that allow users to access DB2/400 files and update the records. You can access these demos here.
