Rational Programming Patterns

The Screen editor

In this editor, you enter all the characteristics of a Screen.

The Screen editor has the following tabs:
  • the Overview tab, which displays, in a read-only mode, some information specified in the other tabs. In this tab, you can modify the instance label, and access the other tabs with the More buttons
  • the Definition tab with the general characteristics of the Screen
  • the -CE Lines tab, where you indicate the fields which constitute the Screen
  • the -CS Lines tab, where you indicate how Segments are accessed in the validation, update and display processing associated with the Screen
  • the -CP Lines tab, which is used to call predefined Macros into the generated program
  • the -G Lines tab, where you can specify comments or generation options, indicate error messages or an online help, and override the generated constants
  • the Keywords tab
Note: To indicate work areas, you must use micropatterns directly in the generated COBOL file.
