  • 1.  EGL Record to COBOL CopyBook

    Posted Tue March 28, 2017 03:42 AM

    Hi!

    Is there a way to generate COBOL CopyBook from EGL record?

    We need this to generate zConnect services (cics wrapers) from existing COBOL (VAGEN, EGL) programs.

     

    Regards,

    BK

    The only way to do this would be to generate the EGL program using EGL cobolGen, then edit the resulting CBL source and copy/paste the record definition.

    Thnak's for your help.

    This is what we did at the end. We build ecplise plugin to parse copybook from cobol code.

    Hi BK

    back in 2010 there was a thread about this..

    Here is the link: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=77777777-0000-0000-0000-000014513065&ps=25

    I used that tool with success, but I'm not sure if it works anymore.
