Mike Cowlishaw elected to the Royal Academy of Engineering

[mcbrides]

Hey you guys...

At last week's AGM, Mike Cowlishaw was elected a Fellow of the Royal
Academy of Engineering. This Academy is comparable with the US NAE and
election is fiercely competitive. No more than two or three of the 49 so
chosen come from the IT-related world.

Congratulations, Mike. They got a good man.

                                                      Hi, All!

    How write in NetRexx analog of next Java code?

//
 Object o = p.getContent();
 if (o instanceof String) {
//     ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ?
     System.out.println("This is a String");

i.e. 'instanceof' statement.

In NetRexx you do that this way:

  if component <= Button then -- etc
/end of qoute*/

Your example goes then like this
/**/
o = Object p.getContent();
if o <= String
then say "This is a String"
/**/

Or even  (to be economic):

   if p.getContent <= String then say "This is a String"

He deserves what he got. Hopefully the other way round for the Royal
Academy :)
