    Dear All, 

    Can we call JAVA/PYTHON API from INFORMIX 4GL new versions?

    Thanks!

    Best Regards,

    Indika:

    I do not believe that you can do that from any Classic 4GL code, not directly anyway. (It would be possible to create a "C" callable wrapper that called out to a JRE.)

    If you need that capability, all three of the 4GL superset languages, Querix Lycia, 4Js Genero, and Aubit4GL can interface with Java at various levels of integration.

    Another option is to wrap it up inside a Java UDR inside the database and call it as a regular procedure.
