of the IBM Toolbox for Java The IBM Toolbox for Java is a library of Java classes supporting the client/server and internet programming models to a system running OS/400 or i5/OS. The classes can be used by Java applets, servlets, and applications to easily access OS/400 and i5/OS data and resources. The Toolbox does not require additional client support over and above what is provided by the Java Virtual Machine and TCP/IP. JTOpen is the open source version of the IBM Toolbox for Java licensed program product. Both have been tested on a wide variety of platforms, including AIX, i5/OS and OS/400, Linux, Solaris, and Windows.
Details of all the functions and capabilities are available on the IBM Toolbox for Java web page.
You can download the latest pre-built version of the JTOpen jar files, as well as the latest Toolbox LPP files, from the Toolbox downloads page.

IBM support statement:
JTOpen is the open source version of the IBM Toolbox for Java Licensed Program Product (LPP).
Aside from simply being "open source", it is our fast-path mechanism to get fixes and enhancements to customers
without waiting for possible PTFs or release boundaries. Thus, the JTOpen offering is always at the most
current level of fixes and function, and generally leads by six months the fixes available via the Toolbox for Java LPP.
Support for the current, unmodified version of the IBM-supplied JTOpen is identical to the IBM Toolbox for Java LPP.
If a software defect is found, the fix will be provided in the next available public build. The level of support
(voice/email/fax) is dependent on the type of service contract. Although the terms and conditions require the
statement of "as is" support for JTOpen, the JTOpen code is maintained by the same development team and with the
same level of quality as the Toolbox LPP. Code fixes for JTOpen will continue to be supplied via the web site.
The JTOpen support is also possible via the web forum and web site. The JTOpen code is available in both compiled
and source code versions for customer downloads. This agreement is applicable worldwide and has been agreed upon
by the iSeries Service Support team.
Here are just a few of the many i5/OS and OS/400 resources you can access using JTOpen:
