JPS5854448A - Preparation for cobol program - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To immediately expand required COBOL format information on a program by the output of a copy instruction by forming an area for COBOL list description in a file after preparation of a picture defining body. CONSTITUTION:After passed through a message edition utility program part 12 and a COBOL list description storing program part 14, information S to be used is stored in a file 13 as COBOL list description Consequently setting-up of a copy instruction COPY on a position in which the information to be used is to be described is sufficient for the user to prepare a COBOL program 15 without ordinary manual coding. The copy instruction can immediately expand the COBOL list description format information as it is.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention is directed to a COBOL program creation method.

C01OL as a user program! Creating a Rodaram meeting is a common daily task. - For example, when a display device AT is used as a terminal, a C0BOL format user program is used to display the screen content of the display device.

In this case, a screen definition body is used to form a desired image on the screen. This screen definition is normally seen as an executable program, and includes various information such as "field length", "1 item", "group length", etc. In accordance with such in-plane definition field information, for example, sIl#, which displays an image only in the upper half of the 1iIII direction, is realized by creating a user program according to the user's specifications.・By the way, when creating a user program in C0BOL format like this, conventionally the Im screen definition -Sui description'f:Il! ii) I had to code by hand using the list that was output when creating the surface definition system. This is because the screen definition source program or the message editing utility Grodam2 is used to convert the screen definition into a screen definition and then print it out in a list format. For this reason, if the list page or the same page is covered, an enormous amount of time and effort must be spent on the above-mentioned reading and handwriting coding, and there is also the disadvantage that mistakes are more likely to occur.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to propose a method for creating a COBOL program that eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks.

In accordance with the above object, the present invention creates an area for the K C0BOL list description in the file by passing through the C0BOL list description storage program after creating the nine screen definitions described above, and when creating the C0BOL7'' program, the screen List regarding definition program information) 1. A copy command shall be written for the Stella/for which the description is written, and the copy command is used to transfer the screen definition program information of the C0BOL list description in the file onto the C0BOL7'' program. The t% characteristic of the expansion is also O.

The present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram schematically illustrating the method according to the invention. However, in this figure, which also includes rounded parts to explain the conventional method, 11 is the information to be used (the above-mentioned one-sided definition body 1 - generally referred to collectively) source program part, for example, the above-mentioned screen. A program is written to create it. The next step after the source program section 11 is the Metsu-7-ji editing utility Grodarum section 12. A process is performed to print the usage information S' on the link device 113'+Φhandle.

-J, 15 UCOBOL format grogram part created by the user. When creating this C0BOL program, when the information to be used is to be written, Ezo is marked on the splitter fikflll 13' and the next information t
-I read *b and coded by hand. For this reason, as the number of list pages increases, the above-mentioned drawbacks may occur.

Therefore, after the 7-ji Tsumugi collection utility program *12YtMfL in Figure 1 of this invention library, the information to be used B is stored as a C0BOL list description in file 13 via C0BOL list description storage fa Durham age 14. put. Then, when Ezo creates the C0BOLfu Datsum (15), it is only necessary to place the copy command "copy" in the place where the information to be used information can be written, without having to manually code it as in the past. This copy command can be immediately expanded to the KCOBOLC0BOL list description information.

There is no need for any complicated and troublesome hand-written coding.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing program creation examples based on the conventional method and the method of the present invention in columns (4) and 2.
The information to be used @E'', which was manually coded in the past (see column (4)), can be simply coded by the present invention as ``cop''.
y-IC".

Figure 3 is a rounded figure for diagrammatically explaining the function of the C0BOL list description storage program section 140 in Figure 1 using an example. In this figure, the same reference numbers or symbols as in Figure 1 are given.・In this figure, @E# is the target that should be registered in file 13 in the rounding of the copy command (same as information 1Em in Figure 2). ,l! Then, the C0BOL list description storage program section 14 stores the information in the so-called W format.
It has a function of attaching kW4@, and attaches identification information indicating which file (for example, file D) and which member (for example, member g) to be registered. If such a registration is made, when a copy command is issued for desired information @E'', the information in the translated C0BOL format can be immediately retrieved from a predetermined address in the file 13 as is.

As explained above, according to the present invention, when creating a C0BOL program, information in the desired C0IOL format can be immediately expanded onto the program by simply issuing the copy command copy.
