isamadmin.py only supports pdadmin #163

While it is possible to do everything with pdadmin, using the available apis to get (listandshow and show) the object and pop data is nicer. The current implementation of isamadmin.py in start_config is hardcode to the execute function for pdadmin.

Could you provide a use case that shows how isamadmin calls could be improved by calling other APIs? I suspect you are looking for JSON formatted output that pdadmin is not very good at.

Hi Ram, yes, indeed, I'm looking at the API's like this one, to retrieve data . For instance : POST /isam/pdadmin/objectlistandshowext/v1
