<h1 class="topictitle1">i5/OS optimization</h1>
<div><p>The IBM<sup>®</sup> Toolbox
for Java™ licensed
program is written in Java, so it runs on any platform with a
certified Java virtual machine (JVM). The IBM Toolbox for Java classes function in the same way no
matter where they run.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Additional classes come with i5/OS™ that enhance the behavior of the IBM Toolbox
for Java when
it is running on the iSeries™ JVM. Sign-on behavior and performance are
improved when running on the iSeries JVM and connecting to the same iSeries server.
i5/OS incorporated
the additional classes starting at Version 4 Release 3.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enabling the optimizations</h4><p>IBM Toolbox for Java comes in two packages: as a separate
licensed program and with i5/OS.</p>
<ul><li>Licensed Program 5722-JC1. The licensed program version of IBM Toolbox for
Java ships
files in the following directory:<pre> /QIBM/ProdData/http/public/jt400/lib</pre>
<p> These
files do not contain i5/OS optimizations. Use these files if you want behavior
consistent with running the IBM Toolbox for Java on a client.</p>
</li>
<li>i5/OS. IBM Toolbox
for Java is
also shipped with i5/OS in directory<pre> /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/jt400/lib</pre>
<p> These
files do contain the classes that optimize the IBM Toolbox for Java when running on the iSeries JVM.</p>
<p>For
more information see <a href="jarfilelist.htm#jarfilelist__jt400classic">Note
1</a> in the information about <a href="jarfilelist.htm#jarfilelist">Jar
files</a>.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Sign-on considerations</h4><p>With the additional classes
provided with i5/OS, Java programs
have additional options for providing server (system) name, user ID and password
information to the IBM Toolbox for Java.</p>
<p>When accessing a resource on
an iSeries server,
the IBM Toolbox
for Java classes
must have a system name, user ID and password.</p>
<ul><li><strong>When running on a client</strong>, the system name, user ID and password
are provided by the Java program, or the IBM Toolbox for Java retrieves these values from the user
through a sign-on dialog.</li>
<li><strong>When running on the iSeries Java virtual machine</strong>, the IBM Toolbox for Java has
one more option. It can send requests to the current (local) server using
the user ID and password of the job that started the Java program.</li>
</ul>
<p>With the additional classes, the user ID and password of the current
job also can be used when a Java program that is running on one iSeries server
accesses the resources on another iSeries server. In this case, the Java program
sets the system name, then uses the special value "*current" for the user
ID and password.</p>
<p>The Java program can only set the password to
"*current" if you are using record-level access V4R4 or later. Otherwise,
when you use record-level access, "localhost" is valid for system name and
"*current" is valid for user ID; however, the Java program must supply the password.</p>
<p>A Java program
sets system name, user ID, and password values in the <a href="javadoc/com/ibm/as400/access/AS400.html#NAVBAR_TOP"> AS400</a> object.</p>
<p>To use the user ID and password
of the job, the Java program can use "*current" as user ID and password,
or it can use the constructor that does not have user ID and password parameters.</p>
<p>To
use the current server, the Java program can use "localhost" as the
system name or use the default constructor. That is,</p>
<pre> AS400 system = new AS400();</pre>
<p> is
the same as </p>
<pre> AS400 system = new AS400("localhost", "*current", "*current");</pre>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Examples</h4><p>The following examples show how to sign
on to a server by using optimized classes.</p>
<p id="opt__optex1"><a name="opt__optex1"><!-- --></a><strong>Example: Signing
on when using different AS400 constructors</strong></p>
<p>Two AS400 objects are
created in the following example. The two objects have the same behavior:
they both run a command to the current server using the user ID and password
of the job. One object uses the special value for the user ID and password,
while the other uses the default constructor and does not set user ID or
password.</p>
<pre> // Create an AS400 object. Since the default
// constructor is used and system, user ID and
// password are never set, the AS400 object sends
// requests to the local iSeries using the job's
// user ID and password. If this program were run
// on a client, the user would be prompted for
// system, user ID and password.
AS400 sys1 = new AS400();
// Create an AS400 object. This object sends
// requests to the local iSeries using the job's
// user ID and password. This object will not work
// on a client.
AS400 sys2 = new AS400("localhost", "*current", "*current");
// Create two command call objects that use the
// AS400 objects.
CommandCall cmd1 = new CommandCall(sys1,"myCommand1");
CommandCall cmd2 = new CommandCall(sys2,"myCommand2");
// Run the commands.
cmd1.run();
cmd2.run();</pre>
<p id="opt__optex2"><a name="opt__optex2"><!-- --></a><strong>Example: Signing on by using
the user ID and password of the current job</strong></p>
<p>In the following example
an AS400 object is created that represents a second iSeries server. Since "*current" is used,
the job's user ID and password from the iSeries server running the Java program
are used on the second (target) server.</p>
<pre> // Create an AS400 object. This object sends
// requests to a second iSeries using the user ID
// and password from the job on the current server.
AS400 sys = new AS400("mySystem.myCompany.com", "*current", "*current");
// Create a command call object to run a command
// on the target server.
CommandCall cmd = new CommandCall(sys,"myCommand1");
// Run the command.
cmd.run();</pre>
