Re: ILE C++ standards

We've had bad experiences with Java...
30+ MB of memory usage for the JVM doesn't sound so bad until you multiply
it by 10,000 interactive users ;)
(and yes we are familiar with the idea of using Java in a batch program
processing requests off a queue)

Couldn't find any existing C code.

Actually the changes required for the C++ code don't look that bad.
