In this editor, you enter all the characteristics of a
Program.
Note: To indicate work areas, you can use micropatterns or
snippets directly in the generated COBOL file.
Program Overview tab
The Overview tab of a Program displays
the label in a read/write mode. It also shows
information specific to the instance in a read-only mode and provides
access to the other tabs of the instance.
-CD Lines tab
The purpose of this tab is to identify the external resources
of a Program. These resources are represented by Data Structures.
-CP Lines tab
The purpose of this tab is to call one or more Macros into
a batch or online program. If these Macros are parameterized, you
must also specify the values of their parameters. Each occurrence
of the parameter in the original Macro is then replaced by the value
that is entered for this particular program.
-CR Lines tab
This tab is shared by all entity types. It contains the
links between entities. These links are called "references".
In this tab, you can add references that are not already defined in
the design of the entities.
-G Lines
This tab contains three subtabs. In the -GC
Lines, you enter comments on the Program. In the -GO
Lines, you specify the generation options of the Program.
In the -GE Lines, you indicate explicit error
messages for the errors that are detected by specific controls.
Keywords tab
In this tab you enter new keywords or view the keywords
already assigned to the instance.
