Re: Connection mainframe server from java.
Thanks for your reply Norm. I would like to read a file from mainframe system. As you know that we are using jdbc driver "connection =DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, "system", "dinesh5499"); " to retrieve data from the oracle database. Similarly, how could I access a file from the mainframe system.

Yes Norm.. Its using standard protocol HTTP.
Re: Connection mainframe server from java.
If it uses HTTP, then a browser can load a file from it, depending on the server.
Normally a browser loads an html file.

Re: Connection mainframe server from java.
I need the java coding to connect mainframe system. I have to take data from mainframe and display in the front end. Do I need to use any webservice?
Re: Connection mainframe server from java.
I'm not sure I understand where the java program is going to execute and how you are going to use it.
Will the java program execute on the mainframe and you will connect to it via a browser and through the server that is running on the mainframe?
Can you connect to the server on the mainframe using a broswer? What is the problem with using a browser to send an HTTP GET to the server asking for the desired file?
If a browser can connect and read the file from the server, then you could write a program in java that sends the same type of HTTP GET for the file.

Jdbc connectivity,
we use conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbcracle:thin:system/dinesh5499@localhost:1521/XE", "system", "dinesh5499"); to connect to the oracle database.
I understand, we can send HTTP GET request to access the server. What are the coding required to connect for mainframe perspective. Is it possible that java system communicate with Mainframe system without any intermediate. Do we need to use any SOAP request for that?
What coding we suppose to use to connect mainframe.
Wat are the API required.
Re: Connection mainframe server from java.
Can you connect to the server on the mainframe using a broswer?
What hardware the server is on shouldn't make a difference if you are using the HTTP protocol.
The Apache project has some packages that make using HTTP easier.
Or you can use the classes in the java.net package like: HttpURLConnection
