Generate and Build a COBOL Client

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

Generate a Client

You can now generate a COBOL client to access the ProgramREST service that you deployed to the ESDEMO enterprise server region.

  1. From the COBOL Explorer, right-click the ProgramREST Web Service; then select Generate Client from the context menu.
  2. On the Generate Client dialog box, click Current Project; then click OK.

You can watch the generation process in the Console. When it is complete, you'll see the message "Link complete with no errors" after which Eclipse rebuilds the project. You should see that the following files have been added to the project:

  • COBOL Programs > client > ProgramREST-app.cbl
  • COBOL Programs > client > ProgramREST-proxy.cbl
  • Copybooks > client > ProgramREST-copy.cpy
