While on the subject of Java, Web, and related tools for MPE/iX...

You might also want to check out the CD that CSY Europe offered
during a recent/current mailshot regarding e-Services and HP 3000.

  http://www.hp.com/go/3000 -> Europe -> Free CD

It does not only contain a collection of data-sheets and white
paper material, but also copies of various packages that can be
large downloads when pulled from the web. For example, Java/iX
version 1.1.7 and 1.2, Apache JServ for MPE/iX, handout material
from a Java/Apache/MPEiX seminar (sorry, no fancy slides ;-) and
a collection of small Java examples, general utilities (TapeCopy,
GnuZIP, InfoZIP, etc) and the like. The "Golf Shop" demo of the
Enhydra web app server is quite cute, if you want/have to impress
people with open source Java software that can be run on the 3000
"out of the box" ;-)

Notice that the "Webify" white paper seems not to be the most
recent version (the CD has a .doc file, whereas Jazz seems to
have a link to a more recent PDF version).

Also notice that the Java example collection got new members
in between, especially the program and applet that launches and
controls an MPE program (like QUERY) via Java Telnet and wraps
it with a GUI for user interaction. (somewhat bizzare, but seems
to work, at least in this example).

The CD stuff should work on MPE/iX 5.5 and 6.0 (at least, it
did for me ;-) but keep in mind that the README file emphasizes
that all the material is *unsupported* freeware...

Cheerio, Lars.
