To create a Visual Studio project for service interfaces

  1. From the Visual Studio IDE, click File > New > Project.
  2. Under Project types, expand COBOL Projects; then click Native.
  3. Under Templates, click one of the following:
    • Enterprise Server Application - for COBOL program service interfaces only. Use this template for service interfaces that do not require mainframe support.
    • Mainframe Subsystem Application - for CICS and IMS service interfaces, and COBOL program service interfaces that require mainframe support.
    Note:
    • For projects and solutions created with the Enterprise Server Application template, the Studio Enterprise Edition IDE does not display mainframe-related properties, tabs, fields, or other UI controls available for projects and solutions created using the Mainframe Subsystem Application template.
    • When creating a Visual Studio solution for a group of service interface projects, choose one of these templates based on whether or not the projects you intend to add to the solution require mainframe support.
  4. Complete the other fields as required.
