iSeries direction 75
Draft Document for Review October 18, 2004 5486Direction.fm
Open Class® Library: OS/400 V5R2 is the final release to ship the Open
Class Library, part of WebSphere Development Studio for iSeries and
OS/400. For documentation to assist in migrating from IBM Open Class to the
C++ Standard Library, see:

Suggested replacements: All applications that use the Open Class Headers
and Service Programs need to be refreshed using the C++ Standard Library
provided with 5722-WDS and 5722-SS1. When discontinued, IBM Open
Class Headers shipped in library QSYSINC with a descriptive text of “IOC
HEADER” and the IBM Open Class Service Programs, QYPPOC370 and
QYPPOC510 are no longer shipped in library QSYS with OS/400.

Distributed Computing Environment (DCE): OS/400 V5R2 is the final
release to support DCE Base Services for AS/400 (5769-DC1) and DCE Data
Encryption Standard Library Routines for AS/400 (5769-DC3).
For a suggested replacement, we recommend that our Clients build their
distributed applications using the functions provided by MQSeries®, IBM
Toolbox for Java, WebSphere Application Server, or Lotus Domino
technologies for iSeries.
Ultimedia System Facility (USF): OS/400 V5R2 is the final release for the
USF application programming interfaces (APIs) to be shipped or supported
with iSeries Access for Windows.
For suggested replacements, customers have chosen to develop multimedia
applications using more standard means such as DB2 UDB for iSeries binary
large object (BLOB) support or the integrated file system (IFS).
Access Class Libraries: OS/400 V5R2 is the final release to support the
Access Class Libraries in OS/400. The Access Class Libraries are C++
classes that provide access to OS/400 resources, including DB2 UDB for
iSeries.
For suggested replacements, IBM suggests that current users of the Access
Class Libraries use appropriate C language APIs to access OS/400
resources. Current users should also consider using Java and the
corresponding IBM Toolbox for Java interfaces to access OS/400 resources.
OS/400 Language Feature - English Uppercase: IBM plans for V5R3 to be
the last release to support the English Uppercase language features (#2950
and #5550) for OS/400 (5722-SS1).
S/36 and S/38 migration: OS/400 V5R2 is the final release to support:
