PACBAZ Studio: continuity

PACBAZ Studio arises out of the needs of a significant number of very satisfied VisualAge Pacbase (VAP) users, who are at the crossroad after the annoucement of IBM to terminate the support of Pacbase in 2015

PACBAZ Studio provides development and code generation capabilities which are exactly the same as VAP, built on modern Eclipse and relational database infrastructure

The generated COBOL code is strictly the same as the one issued from VAP for all supported platforms (cf z/OS, Bull GCOS, UNIX, ...)

It also allows to generate modernized maintainable COBOL and even Java (within JEE architecture) and C# (within Microsoft .Net architecture)

PACBAZ Studio is totally developped with purely standard and Open source components and has no dependency on any other commercial tool

PACBAZ Studio: Repository

Integrated with Eclipse Accessed by the universal interface JPA: Java Persistance API Data is stored and shared in any open source or commercial

relational database :• Oracle• MySQL• Derby• DB2 UDB• …

Or in XML files that can be temporarily stored inside the developer’s workstation

Replacement of highly used VAP « sessions » via a sophisticated implementation, using CVS or SubVersion

PACBAZ Studio: Repository (continued)

Import of an exported VAP repository produced by EXLI (full or by selected libraries with related components)

Handling of all types of VAP entities Management of useds

• Users and Groups rights• Access to libraries

Small footprint, allowing easy and fast partial global backups in today’s commodity workstations and servers• Example dictionnary of:• 2000 programs,19000 elements, 27000 segments et 5000 dialogs=> 1,5

Gigabytes Organisation per libraries with cross references

PACBAZ Studio: Supported entities

PACBAZ Studio: Supported entities (continued)

Dialogue Text Document Format Guide Database block Method Meta Entity User Relation User Entity User Entity Extension

PACBAZ Studio: extract of UML representation of the repository

PACBAZ Studio: Plug-in

Full integration in Eclipse (3.5 or superior)

Works under Windows but also under any Eclipse supported platform (ie Linux)

Creation and Import of Repository

Manipulation of entity with a nice look and feel

Generation (s) of target (s) code

Sophisticated generated code comparator

Local COBOL compiler (for immediate validation)

Full local mainframe simulation (option)

PACBAZ Studio: Local compilation

Pacbaz Studio generates COBOL code to be compiled in the target environment

We provide a first compile and check capability

Associated COBOL compiler can be:• Micro Focus COBOL• Veryant vCOBOL (that generated Java and is syntaxically closed to z/OS COBOL))• Fujitsu NetCOBOL• Open COBOL (Open source)• COBOL-IT (Open source avec professional support)

Additionnaly, we propose, in the case of IBM Mainframe platforms , a development and local testing infrastructure with the XFRAME Rehosting platform

PACBAZ Studio: Management fonctions

Via Eclipse « administrator » perspective

Management of users and roles• Users, groups• Role and privileges per library• Locking and unlocking of entities

Management of sessions• Current• Historical• Shared and or/local

Save and restore• Base• CVS/Subversion referential

PACBAZ Studio: Delivery model )

TELEBIG group, through its subsidiary France COBOL, is building a strong , transparent and long term partnership with its PACBAZ Studio customers

Price components budget (confidential)• Entry price allowing delivery of all PACBAZ Studio current and future versions in
