Describes the project features that enable you to create, deploy, and run services.
Restriction: This topic applies to Windows environments (local development) only.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.
Before you can use the IMTK, you must first create an Eclipse project using the Enterprise Server Application template. Once the project is in place, you can use
Eclipse functionality to do the following:
- Add appropriate files to the project, such as COBOL programs and copybooks for a COBOL Program service interface
- Create a new service interface
- Import an existing service interface that was either created using older software such as Net Express, or that is part of a different project
- Set service interface properties and deployment options
- Edit existing service interfaces
- Validate service interfaces
- Update service interfaces after making changes to a program or copybook
- Deploy service interfaces to run as services on an
enterprise server instance
- Generate clients to access deployed services
