genXSDFile

The genXSDFile build descriptor option specifies whether an XML schema definition (XSD) side file is to be created for called programs with passed parameters. This XSD file defines any variables, structured records, or flexible records that are defined as the passed parameters of the called program. This XSD file can be used as input to other products such as Rational® testing tools so that these products would know what data is expected by these called programs. The XSD file can be found in the folder specified by the genDirectory build descriptor. For COBOL generation, this file will not be uploaded to the host.

If the EGL program is generated for CICS® and the parameter format is declared as, or allowed to default to COMMPTR, a simple list of pointer variable declarations will be defined in the XSD file, one for each parameter being passed, instead of the record and variable layouts.

Values

No (the default value)
Specifies that the generated XSD side file is not to be created.
YES
Specifies that the generated XSD side file is to be created.
