    It's high time someone added something positive to this diatribe. RPG has evolved and is still evolving. All OUR RPG is ILE RPGIV, written in modular form using the modern constructs of subroutines, procedures and service programs for comon routines. And we write free format code.

    Variables names can be as long as you like. Powerful tools can be purchased at a pittance to instantly convert the ancient into the modern free format code. A little simple editing will fix those horrid six character variables.

    Yes, there's still a lot of the old stuff around in some shops, but blame the IT departments, not the language.

  • RPG rocks! (unregistered) in reply to veppy

    Do you realize how troublesome it is when declaring a simple variable can be "wrong" because the word "CHAR" is off by 1 column?

    I don't suppose you've been surreptitiously using edlin to edit your RPG code again, now have you?

    Clearly you've never used RPG...

    Well I have, and I can tell you for a fact that IBM's source editors have done syntax checking since before you were born, so the 'problem' of being off a column is rather... invented.

    We RPG folk have our own rants (visit a Midrange list and ask how people like matching record) and I find it somewhat refreshing that the Daily WTF thinks that naming conventions are worthy of mention. At least the post is using subprocedures and not some monolith written in 1970.

  • Free Man (unregistered)

    Free format RPG is good and not that much different than other languages. RPG was already good at record I/O, so now that RPG Free is here, I think RPG is a good language and I enjoy programming in it. I can say that having written programs in Pascal, C, and VB.

    Having to maintain fixed format RPG can be unpleasant, but using good coding practices is at least as important as whether or not the program is in free format or not. Given a well-written fixed-format program, and a poorly-written free format program, I'd prefer to maintain the former.

  • RPGProfessional (unregistered)

    What a load of crap. There, I've said it.

    It is blatantly obvious from reading the posts that the majority of you do not or have not used RPG in any serious manner at all.

    Comments like "I use RPG and only have 6 character fields, two characters of which identify the file" are just pure rubbish. Field naming conventions in RPG, like most other languages, is at the discretion of the individual programmer if not corporate standards.

    A lot of the limitations as listed in the various rants and the WTF are releated to older versions of RPG and not the more modern, up to date, enhanced versions available and in use today. Anybody out there still programming using the older style RPG only has themselves to blame - it's their choice where they work after all is said and done.

    The AS/400, iSeries or System i5 as it is now known is (as has been said in previous posts) one of the stablest platforms there. In addition, you can run (if you must) both Linux and Windows servers on the platform in addition to the standard OS/400 or i5/OS.

    The modern RPG language gives you access to everything that you're all complaining about - local variables, DLL's (service programs), user defined functions (procedures), free format coding, state of the art IDE's, the list goes on.

    I have coded in RPG for over 20 years, from RPG-II on a System/36 to todays incarnation. You cannot judge the merits of a language based on the language of 20-30 years ago in the same way you wouldn't judge the merits of XP or Vista based on the original version of Windows.

    Then again, most of you probably would!!!

    I could make all sorts of snide comments about this, but instead I'll just point out that 99.9% uptime means that you're down for eight hours and forty-six minutes a year.

    Any Linux system would laugh at a computer being down so long.

    Actually, I believe that the generally accepted value System i uptime is 99.94%.

    And remember, we're talking about a single stand-a-lone system. I'm not sure how much hardware redundancy that number factors in, but the System i can have redundant and/or hot-swap power supplies, disk, and disk controllers.

    To get better uptime out of a single system, you have to go to a mainframe or possibly specially designed redundant hardware.

    Last but not least, I can have Linux running in one or a logical partition on my System i.

  • Jerry (unregistered) in reply to Landy

    While RPG (all iterations) are designed for business applications, you certainly aren;t limited to that language on a System i5 (it's not AS/400 today - that's a legacy system since replaced). There's Cobol, PL/1, C, Java, Fortran, and probably a few others of which I am unaware.

  • RPG programmer for 35+ years (unregistered) in reply to veppy

    A couple of problems I see. Why would you name a field CHAR? Sounds like you are defining a definition? Next, CHAR would be defined normally in the Definition specification and being off 1 column would not be an issue. But normally you would probably have your fields already defined by the file(s) you are processing so there would be zero coding required for that.

    Lastly though I would offer this comment: Structured code has some significant benefits for maintenance. Yes every programmer has to do certain things certain ways, but the benefit is that every programmer has to do things certain ways, so there is a lot of consistency built in and therefore less concern with individual programmer style.

    And yes, I like RPG. I know other languages but for a business environment RPG gets the job done.

  • Jerry (unregistered) in reply to akatherder

    Actually, in RPG IV you can use up to ten [10] characters per field name; in ILE RPG it's somewhere in the thousands.

    Cobol has had long (30+) field names since its inception, but most of the Cobol programs that I had to maintain over the years were (mostly) using abbreviations that would (mostly) fit into the ten character constraint.

  • Jean Naimard (unregistered)

    Another painful language is Basic, especially the "Business Basic" version I was forced to use some 20 years ago.

    It would not have variables longer than 1 alphacharacter plus 1 digit. Painful! It’s only redeeming value (which made me bear it) was the ISAM/KSAM files.

    I eventually wrote a "pre-compiler" coupled to a terminal emulator to "upload" the "executable" sourcecode (the source code was kept on my workstation, not on the mainframe); the "pre-compiler" allowed to use long variable names and destination labels (for those pesky GOTOs and GOSUBs), and managed to deal with more than 1 statement on the THEN and ELSE parts.

    Of course, the boss wasn't very hot at the idea, but I kept sugarcoating the thing by putting in REMarks the actual variable definitions so he could look at the "executable" source code and "understand" what it did (the "pre-compiler" put a big wad of comments explaining the variable definitions at the beginning of the program, and every line branched to had a REMark showing the label name).

    Don't knock RPG too much- I think it's the only language that was implemented in pure TTL hardware, circa 1968. The Univac 1004 "system" could execute RPG. Basically an army tank with a built-in line-printer, card reader, and just a few primitive circuit boards. Probably fewer logic gates than your microwave oven has. But it could run RPG. And take incoming mortar rounds.

    And I'm sure that was really impressive. In 1968. But we're not in 1968, are we?

    Well, you see, these youngsters only wear a techie hat, not a business hat. So preserving the business software investment $$$ means nothing to them (but funny thing is, it does the Pres, CEO, CFO, CIO, BoD). These kids only think in technical terms. They are accustomed to throwing away production code (youngsters - that means throwing away dollars, but hey it's not your money right?) to upgrade to the latest and greatest Wintel. That is their norm.

    I've been writing pure 64 bit RPG programs since 1995, that run "as is" whenever IBM releases a new version of the OS, or swaps out the CPU. Set it and forget it. When the AS/400 (at that time) went from CISC to RISC (to 64 bits), my RPG programs automagically converted to the 64 bit RISC on the fly. I didn't have to rewrite anything. Moreover, if IBM ever changes the CPU to 128 bits, my RPG programs will automagically convert to 128 bits - on the fly. I can read/write to sockets, code web applications in RPG (yes, I know HTML/CSS/JS/Apache/XML/etc), consume web services, call Unix functions, C functions, send MIME emails, process DB2 databases natively with incredible speed, read/write to PC files, embed SQL in my RPG, code my RPG with an Eclipse based GUI IDE (WDSCi), code in free form RPG (no fixed columns), and so on. Indicators? What are those? Boolean fields. Don't all languages have boolean variables? (well, except SQL).

    And please don't tell me Java runs anywhere. Once you hook into a database, it won't port "as is" anywhere. WORA ain't happening. And any business application connects to a database, unless your idea of a business application is a random number generator. And native RPG database I/O speed runs circles around JDBC.

    What I cannot believe is that you youngsters are writing web apps today using MS-DOS BASIC. That is so old and archaic... What's that? You say you don't do that? Well, where do you think .NET came from, its roots? Now you might say it is so much different than MS-DOS BASIC that this is not a fair comparison, right? And I can't believe you Java kids are coding Applets. What? You stopped doing that for Servlets/JSP? Well kids, welcome to RPG. The current version of RPG is not the version created decades ago. The only difference is that RPG didn't get a new name along the way... I can't recall that last time I generated a paper report with RPG. Users only want Excel/CSV/TXT attachments in emails now.

    Well that's enough, I gotta get back to writing an old archaic 64 bit free form RPG BOM chase.

    Not more difficult? Are you insane? Do you realize how troublesome it is when declaring a simple variable can be "wrong" because the word "CHAR" is off by 1 column?

    Even on the built in dinosaur mode SEU editor, it takes only a couple keystrokes to pop into a hand-holding mode to make sure you can type something in column 17 or whatever.

    And that's just irrelevant, since there have been modern RPG editors available for ages. (CODE/400, WDSC, etc.)

    I totally agree that the old guard are a serious problem in the RPG world, their habits, abilities, and paranoias are crippling in most shops, but the language, when used in its intended context is a huge time saver and actually quite pleasant to work with.

    The main thing is that RPG isn't meant for solving general programming tasks, although it can do so, it is meant for building data-entry, reporting, and record crunching applications. The backbones of daily business activities.

    Ok, I am going to speak to all you that have less than 5 years experinece developing out there. I have worked (developed and managed/administered) IT departments on all 4 major platforms. IBM MAINFRAME(ES9000/VMS-EXA with COBOL, PL/1 and JCL), IBM Midrange SYSTEM/I (AS400) OS/400 with COBOL and every flavor of RPG, UNIX using Bell Labs UNIX OS with PROGRESS and INFORMIX and finally MS/Windows with SQL. Having stated this, YOU MUST KEEP THIS IN MIND: Business "people" that means the people who MAKE THE MONEY for the company do NOT approve projects "just because it is cool to rewrite code". GET REAL. IBM has allowed an investment in code to be preserved while "gingerly" recommending to companies to modernize their code base. AGAIN, decision makers DO NOT spend money on projects just because it is the latest and greatest development tool kit available. GARTNER Group has published studies that show green/amber/white TEXT based entry screens applications blow away a GUI based system. Just becuase it's GUI does not make it all perfect.

    THESE COMMENTS are from a developer who is now THE DECISION MAKER. EVERYTHING REVOLVES AROUND COST in a REAL business. And yes, all of our web development is done in ASP. WHY? well, it is cheap, developers using asp are plentiful and cheap and I can PROTECT the real data (that runs on the System I) from hackers using a ASP application that faces the web.

    Again, BUSINESSES WHO WANT TO REMAIN "ALIVE(profitable)" base EVEYTHING on ROI (Return on Investment). I understand why most Computer Science folks would not understand this concept. All you know is that HEY THIS IS COOL, from my viewpoint, I say, "hummm, is this the best tool for the job? NO, THEN FORGET IT." If you don't like my response, then look for work elsewhere.

    We didn't have a form. We had the ole' RPG RULER!!!

    It was a stainless steel RULER, calibrated for 12 pitch type, that you could lay on a printout and tell where everything on the printout fell according to the fixed field definitions for the different line types.

    There were several different definition types (declaration, output, input, etc) and the ruler had a scale for each one, plus a bunch of little cheat charts on it.

    You didn't give any information as to how RPG is better in this respect but regardless you're wrong. First of all, there are Java databases. Second, there are a couple of very important databases that run on the major os's used as servers: MySQL and Postgresql come to mind. Third, I think you're assuming the Java app and the database reside on the same computer and to move one you have to move the other. That's not true, you can move the Java app to a different computer and connect to a remote database. I'd still consider that WORA (but maybe you'd disagree).
