Thanks for that information. I agree with you about doing Java
development off of the z/OS platform. I, personally, use Netbeans on
Linux. I then upload the entire Netbeans project subdirectory to the
z/OS system. In an actual production environment, however, I might be
tempted to do the compile on z/OS just to be sure that the JVM and the
.class files are compatable.



John,

I understand the argument to recompile on z/OS. But after many years of working with production z/OS java applications, we have never found a problem running classes compiled by either the Sun or Eclipse Java compilers. (You do need to make sure that you are building with the correct JDK level and target JVM level).

I could be wrong, but I think that the z/OS SDK's javac compiler uses Sun's code (in java) for compiling to byte-codes.
