Introduction to Object REXX Programming

    

Summary:
This course is designed to enable the student to create, debug and modify programs in IBM's Object REXX programming language. The course is primarily designed for execution in a Windows environment (Windows XP/2000/NT or Windows 9x/ME), although it can also be hosted in a Linux or UNIX (AIX/Solaris) or OS/2 Warp 4.0 environment.A principle advantage of Object REXX is the ease of creating new programs that utilize existing vendor-supplied and/or site-written classes. Rapid design and development techniques will be taught that result in clean, maintainable code and reusable class libraries.
