VisualAge For Java AS/400 Feature
		=================================

		     Readme for Service Pack
		     =======================

Installing AS/400 Feature Service Pack
--------------------------------------
Download and unzip the vj4sp01.zip file into a \TEMP directory
retaining the directory structure in the zip file.  It requires 
approximately 20MB of the hard disk space.  Run the "INSTALL.BAT"
file from the \TEMP directory.  This will invoke the Install Shield to
install the service pack.  

The service pack installs in the AS/400 Feature install directory and
requires 20MB additional space, so make sure that you have enough 
space on the drive.  Note that the service pack install runs in 
U.S. English only, but it will recognize and install the fixes in the
supported languages.

Uninstalling AS/400 Feature Service Pack
----------------------------------------
To un-install the service pack, open the Control Panel folder on 
My Computer.  Run the Add/Remove Program, select the 
"Visual Age for Java AS/400 Feature 1.0 Service Pack 1" listed on
the Install/Uninstall page, and click on the Add/Remove push button.

If you uninstall the service pack, you will have to recreate the
"Cooperative Debugger Help" shortcut manually.  
Use the Windows Explorer to open 
WINDOWS\Start Menu\Programs\IBM VisualAge for Java for Windows\AS400\Information
folder on Windows'95 platform, or
WINNT\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\IBM VisualAge for Java for Windows\AS400\Information
folder on WIN/NT platform.
On File menu, point to New and then click Shortcut.  Enter 
"x:\IBMVJava\AS400\bin\IVIEW.EXE x:\IBMVJava\AS400\help\cttdhx1.hlp"
on the Command Line entry field (where x: is the AS/400 Feature 
installation drive), and "Cooperative Debugger Help" as the Shortcut Name.

Fixes in the Service Pack 1
---------------------------
This service pack contains the following:
   - Cooperative Debugger that is capable to debug java code and
     brings up HTML help using the default HTML browser
   - AS/400 Toolbox for Java documentation in Japanese
   - Simplified Chinese workstation fix
   - Miscellaneous fixes for AS/400 Feature SmartGuides
   - Information on running the Getting Started examples (see AS400.TXT)

AS/400 Feature Examples
-----------------------
If you want to follow the example in the "Getting Started" section
of the AS/400 Feature HTML Help, and try out the scenario yourself,
you need to apply the appropriate PTF listed below for "Application
Development ToolSet/400" product and restore the ADTSLAB library.

   Operating System Release	PTF Number	LPP Number
   ------------------------	----------	----------

	V3R2M0			SF46712		5763PW100
	V3R6M0			SF46713		5716PW100
	V3R7M0			SF46714		5716PW100
	V4R2M0			SF46716		5769PW100

Debugging Using Cooperative Debugger
------------------------------------
In order to debug java applications using the Cooperative Debugger,
you need the debug information stored in the .class files.  Since the
VisualAge for Java IDE optimizes the code when the .class files are
exported out of IDE, you must export the source code of your
application in the form of .java source files to your workstation. 
Compile the source using "javac" compiler of the Java Development
Toolkit (JDK) with option "-g" to retain the debug information.  
Then export the .class files to an AS/400 host and debug using the
Cooperative Debugger.

Documentation for Subfile and Entry Field Classes
-------------------------------------------------
To read the documentation use the Windows Explorer and open
x:\IBMVJava\AS400\doc\ref folder. Double click on the 
com.ibm.as400ad.util.AS400VisualSubfile.html or 
com.ibm.as400ad.util.AS400VisualTextField.html.


Considerations for ADTSCS/400 Product
-------------------------------------
If you have ADTSCS/400 (V3R2M1) installed, then remove 
x:\IBMVJava\AS400\help from the HELP environment variable after 
installing this AS/400 Feature service pack.  You may also set the
IPF_PATH32 environment variable to x:\adtswin\system.

If you uninstall this AS/400 Feature service pack, then remember to
undo the above changes.

AS/400 Toolbox for Java PTFs
----------------------------
If you wish to upgrade the "IBM AS/400 Toolbox for Java" classes in
your AS/400 Feature, you can download the toolbox PTF (Program Temporary
Fix) from the resource http://iws.as400.ibm.com/toolbox under
"Service Packs".
