DDM examples

The examples in this topic collection are based on representative application programs that might be used for processing data both on the local IBM® i platforms and on one or more remote systems.

The first example is a simple inquiry application, and the second example is an order entry application. The third example accesses multiple files on multiple IBM i platforms. The fourth example accesses multiple IBM i platforms and a System/36.

The coding for each of these examples and tasks has one or two parts:

  • Coding, shown in pseudocode form, not related to DDM but used to build the programming environment. The examples show you the task steps needed, independent of the language you use for your applications. You can write or adapt your programs in your language with the necessary coding to perform these or similar tasks.
  • Coding, mostly done in CL, related to communicating with the other systems using DDM in the network.
