Backup RPG Code To PC
I am doing a lot more work on iSeries machines where I don’t have easy access to backups. So needless to say I back up my source religiously and that usually means once a day. This is a tedious 15 minute process that is a necessarry evil, but today I decided “I AM A PROGRAMMER! WHY AM I DOING THIS BY HAND!”. So I wrote a nice little Java program to do the work for me :-)
The below URL will give you the necessary jar file to run the application. Basically it is just one java source file and one jar file (commons-net…jar)
Note that I just pounded out the code fast so there may be bugs in it that haven’t been worked out. That’s why I am giving you the source :-) Also not that you can’t just execute the jar file. You need to unzip it and put it into Eclipse (or your IDE) and run it from there.

Is there any documentation for your Backup RPG Code To PC?
Thank you
None other than the actual code itself which is the best documentation of all right? :-) It is a pretty straight forward program, so after you look through it a little let me know if you have any questions.
Can you provide some more details on this?
What type of details are you looking for? I included the source in the “Download here” link so you can see what is going on under the covers.
