Well, I went with a BBB after all. After preparing a list of what I would need to get started with a R-Pi, I realized the BBB would be cheaper. Now I am awash in documentation on the HW and pins and GPIO and how to operate all that neat stuff. Anybody got any good links especially if Netrexx related?

You should definitely wait for a more definitive response -- I don't actually own a RasPi -- but if you can load the Python code into
Jython, and then save the resulting class files, you could simply call them from NetRexx just like any other standalone class (or library). No conversion would be required at all ... another benefit of running on the JVM. _______________________________________________ Ibm-netrexx mailing list [hidden email] Online Archive : http://ibm-netrexx.215625.n3.nabble.com/ |

There are really only two links you need:
I have tried the OpenJDK 6 and it works, but the Oracle distro is roughly 3X faster in my very informal, and totally unscientific testing with SciMark 2.0. The OpenJDK comes with the ZeroVM which is assembler-free and thus pays a performance price in exchange for portability. And, depending on your
intentions, you don't really need any hardware to get started.
Connect the included USB cable (or any smartphone charger
cable), and use It's also reasonably important (altho' not vital) to upgrade the OS on the board. The instructions are all in the "Getting Started" info (also included). But the most important thing of all, and the real reason for any of this is to Have Fun! _______________________________________________ Ibm-netrexx mailing list [hidden email] Online Archive : http://ibm-netrexx.215625.n3.nabble.com/ |

If you guys are going to do much with java applications on Z, you may want to investigate adding a zapp. One of IBM’s best values in my opinion.
