Package utilities Description

Provides various utility applications and classes.

Warning: The JPing and AboutToolbox classes have been moved to com.ibm.as400.util. This "utility" package is deprecated and will be removed from the Java 9 version of the jar file.

The IBM Toolbox for Java offers the following utilities:

  • AS400ToolboxInstaller (deprecated) - Allows you to install and update IBM Toolbox for Java classes on the client. This function is available both as a Java program and as an application programming interface (API).
  • AS400ToolboxJarMaker - Generates a faster loading Toolbox JAR file by creating a smaller JAR file from a larger one, or by selectively unzipping a JAR file to gain access to the individual content files.
  • RunJavaApplication - Allows you to run a Java program on an IBM i system from a remote command line prompt or graphical user interface.
  • JPing - Allows you to remotely determine if the host server jobs that the Toolbox uses for communication are started and running on your IBM i system.
