You can deploy EGL web projects on a CICS Liberty profile.
Rational® Business Developer supports
the following on a CICS Liberty Profile.
- EGL Web Transactions
- EGL Rich UI
- EGL Java Wrappers
Before you begin
To run your EGL Web projects
under the CICS Liberty, you need to migrate your existing EGL Web
projects to use the latest EGL Java Runtime library file (fda7.jar).
You can use the workspace migration wizard for the migration. For
details, refer to Workspace
Migration.
Deploying Web Projects to CICS Liberty
To
deploy your EGL Web project on CICS Liberty, you can do one of the
following
- Export the WAR or EAR files from your Web projects by right clicking. Ensure that Target
Runtime is set to WebSphere Application Server
V8.5 Liberty Profile. Then deploy the exported WAR or
EAR file to CICS Liberty. For more details, refer to Java Web Applications.
- Install the IBM CICS Explorer SDK into Rational Business Developer and
create a CICS Bundle Project. Add your EGL Web project to that Bundle
Project and export to CICS. For details, refer to Developing
applications using the CICS Explorer SDK.
Restriction: Rational Business Developer does not support
the following under CICS Liberty Profile:
- J2EE. Ensure that enable J2EE is set to no in
your build descriptor.
- Liberty profile 8.5.0 in CICS TS 5.1 does not support the JAX-WS
and JAX-RPC service.
To call the CICS COBOL programs, you must have the CICS
Transaction Gateway for z/OS installed and configured, then
use the CICSECI interface.
