In this editor, you enter all the characteristics of a
Macro.
Macro Overview tab
The Overview tab of a Macro displays
the label in a read/write mode. It also displays
information specific to the instance in a read-only mode and provides
access to the other tabs of the instance.
Comments tab
Use this tab to document the Macro parameters. It is meant
to help developers when calling a Macro in the -CP Lines tab
of a Program, a Screen or a Server.
-G Lines tab
This tab contains the -GC Lines subtab,
where you enter comments on the Macro. Another tab, titled Comments,
is designed to document the Macro parameters. It is useful when the
developer inserts the Macro in a Program or a Screen. This tab also
contains the -GE Lines subtab, where you indicate
explicit error messages for the errors detected by specific controls.
Macro COBOL editor
This editor is used to modify the source code of Macros
that are retrieved from different models (batch or client for example).
It consists of a source code textual editor, in which you enter the
code, and of a Macro code structure view, which
displays the nodes hierarchy of the Macro.
-CR Lines tab
This tab is shared by all entity types. It contains the
links between entities. These links are called "references".
In this tab, you can add references that are not already defined in
the design of the entities.
Keywords tab
In this tab you enter new keywords or view the keywords
already assigned to the instance.
