Smooth the Java Journey with Struts
by David Morris
Building enterprise-level Web applications is no easy task. There are many ways to present data, control application flow, model data, and organize applications. Fortunately, aspiring Web architects can use tried- and-proven design patterns to avoid the pitfalls of others. The most important design pattern for Web architects is called Model-View-Controller. The MVC design pattern separates applications into three types of components. Model components support data retrieval from a database or other source. View components support the way data is presented to the user or the view. And controller components control the flow of the application. READ MORE >

Programming with Assertions
by Cletus the Codeslinger
I am amazed to see how much programmers take for granted. For example, I have worked on many programs in which the author had assumed that an RPG CHAIN operation (a random read) would always find the sought-for record. Occasionally I have to fix a program that ended abnormally because it attempted to divide by zero. The authors of such programs assumed that the divisor would never be zero, but somehow such a thing happened. READ MORE >

High Availability
That's Affordable, Reliable, Easy-to-Use
State-of-the-art high availability isn't as expensive and complex as you think. Not only does Echo2 cost about half of other solutions, it is so dependable, automated and self-managing that monitoring of the system usually takes less than an hour a day, and production-to-backup switchovers can be reliably accomplished in minutes.
For the Free White Paper, "High Availability - It's More Affordable Than You Think," call 1-800-957-4511, email to info@iterainc.com, or visit www.iterainc.com.

Make a CL Program or Module Retrieve Its Name
Hey, Ted:
As if I didn't have enough to do, I wasted an hour on a wild goose chase. A user contacted me when a program cancelled. The message she received told her that program XYZ had ended abnormally. It took me a while to determine that program ABC had cancelled instead. It turned out that ABC was a clone of XYZ and still included the following, misleading CL command. READ MORE >

Admin Alert: When Management Central Server Won't Start
by Joe Hertvik
In 2002, I wrote an article on how to troubleshoot IBM's OS/400 V5R1 Management Central GUI when it simply refuses to start. The Management Central GUI is used for a number of valuable OS/400 functions, including graphing performance data, running commands on other systems, and synchronizing PTFs between iSeries boxes.

by Shannon O'Donnell
It really is true that the more things change, the more they stay the same. Just when you were getting used to the idea that Microsoft would be suddenly and precipitously dropping its JVM in September, Microsoft announces that it's extending the JVM for another three years. Get out your score cards, folks! Also in this issue, we'll point you to a cool new tool that lets you test multiple operation systems on a single PC. READ MORE >
