From the Inside Flap

Since its introduction in 1993, Control Language Programming for the AS/400 has become an integral part of hundreds of AS/400 college courses. The textbook has proven to be a boon to students who plan to initiate careers as AS/400 programming professionals, as well as a must-read for programmers already in the AS/400 workforce who need to brush up on their CL techniques.

In this second edition, Bryan Meyers and Dan Riehl have updated the text to include discussion of the Integrated Language Environment (ILE). Specifically, Chapter 22 discusses fundamental changes ILE introduces to the AS/400’s execution model. This chapter will help the student understand how ILE has changed some traditional AS/400 concepts. In addition, a new appendix explains how to use the ILE debugger.

The authors, with more than 20 years’ experience in CL programming between them, write from an up-to-the minute knowledge of the skills required in today’s MIS environment.

Students without previous knowledge of CL will learn the basics quickly. As the book progresses methodically to more complex processes and concepts, it guides readers smoothly toward a professional grasp of CL programming techniques and style.

Control Language Programming for the AS/400, Second Edition, is organized into five sections containing 25 chapters. Each chapter ends with review questions and practical exercises and includes graduated programming assignments. Throughout, concise “Coding in Style” sidebars offer tips on style issues that give students the benefit of the authors’ years of practical experience. Two appendices cover essentials of AS/400 features needed for program development and SEU. A third appendix serves as a condensed reference to the CL commands used most often in CL programs.
