Actions and Tools

First create the tool descriptors, then the action descriptors, and associate the tool descriptors to the action descriptors. For details of how to define both, see Data Model Details - Action Descriptor and Tool Descriptor.

The following actions are used in the example AWM model:

Action Descriptor ID	Description
MVS_ ACT_CONT_AssociateSyslib	Opens an dialog to associate syslib data sets to a PO member.
MVS_ ACT_CONT_CreateDatasetFilter	Opens a dialog to prompt for new data set filter attributes and calls a REXX procedure to store the filter information in a sequential file on the mainframe. This action is associated to the context menu of the root entry "MVS Projects".
MVS_ACT_CONT_CreateRootentries	Creates the static root entry "MVS Projects" which is provided by an AWM function package tool.
MVS_ACT_CONT_DeleteDatasetFilter	Calls a REXX procedure to delete a filter definition in a sequential file on the mainframe.
MVS_ACT_CONT_DeleteMember	Opens a dialog to confirm the delete requests and calls a REXX procedure which deletes the PO member.
MVS_ACT_CONT_DuplicateMember	Opens a dialog to ask for a new member name and calls a REXX procedure which copies the member in the PO data set.
MVS_ ACT_CONT_FilterList	Creates an element list with the defined filters using a REXX procedure. This action is associated to the static entry "MVS Projects" and called when this entry is expanded in the tree view.
MVS_ACT_CONT_InsertMember	Opens a dialog to ask for a new member name and calls a REXX procedure which creates the member in the PO data set. This action is executed on the context menu of a PO member.
MVS_ACT_CONT_InsertMemberOnPDS	Opens a dialog to ask for a new member name and calls a REXX procedure which creates the member in the PO data set. This action is executed on the context menu of a PO data set.
MVS_ACT_CONT_RecallDataset	Calls a REXX procedure which recalls a migrated data set and refreshes the data set list.
MVS_ACT_CONT_RefreshMember	Refreshes properties of an PO member. This action is assigned to the PO member element type as a Get All Properties Action.
MVS_ACT_ CONT_RemoteBrowse	Opens a PO member in the editor (read-only access).
MVS_ACT_ CONT_RemoteBrowsesSeq	Opens a sequential data set in the editor (read-only access).
MVS_ACT_ CONT_RemoteEdit	Opens a PO member in the editor and permits changes.
MVS_ACT_ CONT_RemoteEdit_SEQ	Opens a sequential data set in the editor and permits changes.
MVS_ACT_CONT_RemoteJOBSubmit	Submits a JCL member to JES using a MVS function package tool.
MVS_ACT_CONT_RemoteSyntaxCheck	Opens a dialog to ask for additional compile options and calls a REXX procedure which compiles the source (supported for COBOL, PL/I, Assembler and C). Compiler messages are shown in the Team Developer Error view, which is provided by an AWM function packages tool.
MVS_ACT_CONT_RenameMember	Opens a dialog to ask for a new member name and calls a REXX procedure which renames the member in the PO data set.
MVS_ACT_CONT_UpdateDatasetFilter	Opens a dialog to prompt for new data set filter attributes and calls a REXX procedure to store the filter information in a sequential file on the mainframe.
MVS_ACT_EDIT_ReparseSourceWithRefresh	Is associated as a global action to the PL/I and COBOL editor and refreshes the COBOL copybooks or PL/I includes if selected from the editor's context menu. A Micro Focus Edit Tool supports this action.
MVS_ACT_ELIST_DatasetList	Is associated to a defined filter in the tree or filter view and creates a data set list either as entries in the tree view or in the table view. The action is provided by an MVS function package tool.
MVS_ACT_ELIST_Memberlist	Is associated to a PO data set and creates a member list either as entries in the tree view or in the table view. The action is provided by an MVS function package tool.
MVS_ACT_ELIST_SearchMembers	Opens a dialog to prompt for text search options and calls a REXX procedure which performs a string search on the members of a PO data set.

The following tool descriptors have to be defined to support the actions defined above.

Tools required from the AWM function package:

Tools required from the MVS function package:

Tools required from the MF Editor function package:

Tools required from the ISPF function package. The ISPF tools are all of type "Execute ISPF Command". The following figure does not show all modeled tool input and output parameters.

The figure below shows how the action descriptors must be modeled. The figure shows the relationship to tools only if more than one tool descriptor is used within one action.
