In this lab, you will get a hands-on introduction to building ILE RPG CGI programs using ProGen WebSmart, a charter member of the IBM iSeries Developer Roadmap. You will be introduced to the advantages of web deployment using the Apache web server which ships as a standard component of OS/ 400. You will create a browser based CGI application which starts with a login program authenticating an iSeries user ID and password. Then you will use WebSmart's comprehensive set of templates to build SQL driven inquiries, maintenance programs, drill downs and more. Optional exercises will introduce Clover, BCD's powerful new report design wizard, to construct an SQL driven CGI web report complete with level breaks and totaling. This lab demonstrates just how easy CGI development can be using a professionally developed and managed iSeries web development tool.
