  DCL CGI? 
 The Question is:
 
Java is being shipped with Open VMS now
 
We have a product that has uses over 90 DCLs
 
We want to build a web application [running from an VMS web server] that can
access those DCLS on the VMS server.
 
Is there a JAVA object conversion utility that is available for those DCLs
or is there a method of initiating the DCLS or related cobol programs from
Java or other web utility that comes with OPEN VMS.
 
 
 The Answer is:
 
  DCL command procedures can be (easily) modified to operate in a CGI
  environment.
 
  At its simplest, the DCL procedure need only emit the CGI header followed
  immediately by the required blank line, a few lines of HTML tags including
  the HTML and PRE tags, then the usual output of the procedure, followed by
  the ending PRE and HTML tags.
