Launching programs via Genie?
Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2016 12:18 pm
Sorry for what is likely a simple question, but I am not at all an AS400 programmer/operator, just a .Net programmer tasked with creating an application that uses PL products to interface with our AS400. To date, the application works fine with Rich Display programs that have been converted and they are displayed using a browser control provided with the following URL:
"http://MyServer:8080/profoundui/auth/st ... 1={0}&l1=9" where {0} is a sessionID.
The problem is that many of the AS400 "objects" can't be converted to Rich Display without significant refactoring so my boss wants to run everything through Genie.
I see at the bottom of this doc that I should be able to launch a Rich Display program through Genie, but I don't see anywhere how I make "A simple CALL" with Genie to do that.
I also see in this doc I should be able to run Profound within Genie, which seems like what we want, but I'm not understanding what I need to change in the .Net app.
I need to move forward on this ASAP so any guidance would be greatly appreciated. :)
