PSB Generation

You can generate a PSB from the IDE by building a project that contains a PSB, or you can generate a PSB using the mfims psbgen command.

Generating a PSB updates the following files:

psbname.acb
psbgen3.dat

These files contain PSB source information that has been extracted and formatted into a smaller structure optimized for faster access during execution. psbgen3.dat is an indexed file and can contain one or more generated PSB members.

The psbgen3.dat and psbname.acb files are created in the directory specified in your project properties, on the IMS tab in the Generated files field.

Note: When you deploy your application to an enterprise server, you must provide the enterprise server with the location of the generated files. See To specify the location of generated files for instructions.
