Rational Developer for System z, Version 7.6

Using the COBOL Project wizard

You can use the COBOL Project wizard to create a new COBOL project in your workspace.
To create a new COBOL project in their workspace that contains the generated source code from the UML-to-COBOL transformation, complete the following steps:
  1. Click New > COBOL Project.
  2. Complete the new project name and location, and select whether you want to use the Remote Synchronization feature, then select Next.
  3. Click the UML-to-COBOL Generation application template, then click Next.
  4. Enter or select the file name of the intermediate file to use to generate the code. Any file location accessible by the workstation is accepted; you do not need to first import the file into the workspace.
Figure 1. Creating a new COBOL project
The New > Select a wizard selection opens this window. Create a new COBOL Project is highlighted as the type.
Figure 2. Choosing an application template
From the last window, the COBOL Project window is selected and shows the UML-to-COBOL Generation template highlighted.
Figure 3. Generating COBOL programs from UML
The UML-to-COBOL Generation wizard opens and a COBOL source model file location appears or can be selected using the Browse button.
The project is then created. The COBOL source code is generated from the intermediate file which is also copied into the new project. Selecting the Remote Synchronization feature in the wizard in order to integrate with System z® is recommended. The generated source code can also be copied or moved into a z/OS® Project for integrating with System z.
