I am starting a program with Acucobol 9.11 and .Net with a product called SonicMQ.  I would like to know if anybody out there have done any programs using "net assemblies.  I am battling to find out how to use stored objects and the documentation provided is not very helpful

 

I am a COBOL programmer so either way is a new experience - the programmers have said we can use soap.  Once again I would love some helpful documentation..

    I looked at the SonicMQ datasheet and noticed that the product also provides a web services SOAP interface.  Would you consider using that interface instead?

    [EDIT]

    I see you mentioned the SOAP interface in your comments.

    RMNet, a subprogram library newly available with extend 9.1, along with XML Extensions, will allow your COBOL program to be a web services client using the SOAP interface for SonicMQ.   

    I cannot really judge the complexity of using the web services interface simply by reading the product datasheets.  However, interacting with web services is fairly straightforward.

    Have you looked at the example in 912\\AcuGT\\sample\\dotnet\\NETOBJECTS ... ReadMeSetUp.txt
