We provide these basic tutorials:
- COBOL Program Tutorial - Start with a COBOL application, and using its entry points, define a service interface that you deploy to an enterprise server as a Java/EJB service. Generate a JSP client and access the service.
- CICS Screen Tutorial - Start with a CICS COBOL application and, using its
.bms maps, define a service interface that you deploy to an enterprise server as a Web Services service. Generate a Windows Forms and a console client and access the service with each.
- IMS Screen Tutorial - Start with an IMS COBOL application and, using its
.mfs maps, define a service interface that you deploy to an enterprise server as a Web Services service. Generate a Windows Forms and a console client and access the service with each.
Before starting any tutorial, you must first create a Visual Studio Solution to contain your service interface projects.
Following that, you can do the three tutorials in any order, but within each you must complete each topic of instruction in sequence in its entirety to be successful.
The bottom of each topic provides
Next topic and
Previous topic navigational links to help you proceed through the tutorials in their proper sequence.
If you are not familiar with the concept and implementation of a service interface, take some time to review the introductory information and other relevant topics for the Service Interfaces feature.
