The Overview tab of a Server displays
the label, in a read/write mode. It also displays
other information in a read-only mode and provides access to the other
tabs of the instance.
Description of the tab
Three sections
are not tabs. They are displayed in the
Overview tab
only:
Alerts and Action Items,
General
information, and
Generation parameters definition (on
some entities).
All the other sections provide links to the corresponding
editor tabs.
If information is displayed in a section, you
can carry out either of the following actions:
- Click it if it is displayed as a link. You automatically switch
to where the information is specified.
- Click the More button to switch to the
corresponding tab.
If no information is displayed in the section, click
the symbol in front of the section name. It gives you access to the More button.
Click it to access the corresponding tab.
The sections of the tab
- Alerts and Action Items
- Any problem that is related to the current instance is displayed
in this section as a link. If you click this link, you automatically
switch to the Problems view, where the line
that corresponds to the error is highlighted. The error is explained
and you can correct it.
General information displays
the following fields:
- Work context
- The work context is the project from which you open the editor
of the current instance. This project constitutes the starting point
for the resolution of the dynamic links and references between the
instances of the various projects. The projects hierarchy that is
declared in the design build path is explored in an upward direction.
If
you click Hierarchy, you can see a partial
view of the design build path. In this view, the project that constitutes
the work context is the lowest project of the hierarchy.
More
information can be found in the following links: The work context and The design build path.
- Name
- The instance name is displayed in read-only mode. It is entered
when the instance is created, and it cannot be modified later.
- Label
- Enter the label that identifies the instance. It will constitute
a search criterion for a subsequent search.
- Generation parameters definition
- Generation parameters are specified in Libraries. These parameters
are related to the adaptation to the operating system in use.
So
the current instance is associated with the generation parameters
indicated in the Library that is displayed here. You can click Change to
select another Library.
The other sections of the tab display, in a read-only
mode, the information entered in the corresponding tabs:
- The Definition section displays, the type
of COBOL and map to generate, the Program external
name, and transaction code entered
on the Definition tab of the Server. It also
shows the Generated skeleton language, selected
in the Definition tab of the Library where the
Server is defined.
- The -CS Lines section displays how Segments
are accessed for the processing associated with the Server.
- The -CP Lines section displays the Macro
calls in the Server.
- The -G Lines section displays the Server's
comments and generation options and elements.
- The Keywords section displays the Server's
keywords.
Note: To indicate internal resources, you must specify micropatterns
directly in the generated COBOL file.
