Walks you through the process of creating a service interface for the ScheduleDemo application.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

You are creating a REST type service interface for the ScheduleDemo COBOL application.

  1. From the Solution Explorer, right-click the ProgramREST project; then click Add > New Item.
  2. In the left pane, expand COBOL; then click Native.
  3. In the center pane, click Service Interface.
  4. In the Name field, type ProgramREST; then click Add.
  5. In the Type of interface field, select Web Service.
  6. Under Transport Type, click JSON.
  7. In the Type of source field, select COBOL Program; then click OK.

At this point, Visual COBOL adds the ProgramREST service interface to the Solution Explorer and invokes the Interface Mapper. You are ready to define the details of the service interface.
