Rational Developer for System z


Summary: Exercise 6

In this exercise, you have modified the Eclipse plug-in project from Exercise 5 to customize the view of COBOL container members with a decorator, and label each RAM with either "Connected" or "Disconnected" tags.

Results

You can run or debug your plug-in project now. Do the following while still in the testing workspace to verify the functionality of your plug-in:
  1. Open the z/OS Projects perspective.
  2. Open the CARMA Developer view by selecting from the main file menu, Window > Show View > CARMA Developer. The view should open.
  3. Expand the host system. You should see each of the RAMs on the host system marked with a label " - (Disconnected)."
  4. Right click on one of the RAMs containing .cbl files and select Connect. When CARMA has connected to the RAM, you should see the label change to " - (Connected)."
  5. Lastly, expand the RAM until you see the individual COBOL members within the RAM. the icon for these members should be the particular image you specified.
