EGL provides a library and Record definitions to communicate with data queues and data areas on IBM i.
The IBM i operating system has its own API to handle program-to-program communication. The communication can take place through one of two objects:

You might use a data area, for example, to hold a flag that lets one program tell another to perform garbage collection. A data queue scenario is typically more complex, as in the following example:
EGL supports these iSeries® objects in two ways:
