Rational Developer for System z, Version 7.5

Generating the design of a Program or a Screen

From the Generate choice of the Design explorer view, you can generate the design of the currently-selected Program or Screen.

To generate the design of a Program, you must right-click on a given Program in the Design explorer view and select Generate > Program generation. The same applies to the Screen, except that you select Generate > Pac Screen generation instead.

A 'Progress information' message box is displayed until the generation is complete.

The generation outputs a .cbl file, nested under the instance in the Design explorer view. Right-click on it and choose Open with > Pdp Cobol System z Lpex editor to access the Cobol editor and views which will enable you to work on the code. (A contextual help is available on this editor and views)
