IBM i programming transformations for ILE - References

ILE is a set of tools and associated system support designed to enhance program development on the IBM i operating system.
ILE offers the following benefits over previous program models:

• binding that it helps reduce the overhead associated with call operations, 
• modularity, 
• reusable components, 
• common runtime services, 
• coexistence of ILE with OPM programs (that support call of its other) that results in a gradual transition to ILE, and 
• a source debugger. 
• better control over resources, 
• better control over language interactions, 
• better code optimization, 
• a better environment for C, and 
• a foundation for the future.
