What is "virtual Java"? You have a 64-bit Java compiler and interpreter at the 1.4.2 version with that FMID. You can run Java "class" and "jar" files using it. Language Environment is simply a common subroutine library. It is freely distributed with z/OS. It does not come with any compilers itself. LE compatable compilers that I am aware of are: Enterprise COBOL, Enterprise PL/I, VS FORTRAN. Each of these must be separately licensed from IBM. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
