Overview:
IBM Interactive System Productivity Facility (ISPF) is a multi-faceted development tool set for IBM Z®. It provides host-based software development, including software configuration management.
With ISPF, you can manipulate source code and data stored on a host and work with interactive applications called dialogs. Programmers can use ISPF to develop and document batch and interactive programs. IBM Z systems administrators and systems programmers can use ISPF to monitor and control program libraries and communications with IBM z/OS®.
Save time
Develop user dialogs and display capabilities by using ISPF Dialog Manager, without having to code display functions.
Increase efficiency
Work directly with source code and data stored on the host through Program Development Facility (PDF), a panel-driven menu interface and service facility.
Enhance flexibility
Use the Interactive ISPF Gateway to enable applications to run programs that are interactive, issuing TSO/ISPF conversational mode commands.
Features:
ISPF Dialog Manager to develop user dialogs
ISPF Dialog Manager provides services to dialogs and users, including display, variable services, input and output and more. It controls the interaction of dialog elements and can issue requests.
PDF panel-driven interface
With PDF, you can bypass the browse mode on view entry and edit entry panels. PDF features Edit Recovery Handling to recover work and Browse Interface and the Edit Interface to allow dialogs to provide their own I/O.
Support for z/OS UNIX directories and files
In addition to support for IBM z/OS® data sets, ISPF provides a powerful z/OS UNIX Directory List Utility that supports processing of directories and files in a z/OS UNIX directory structure.
Interactive ISPF gateway
ISPF provides a thin gateway service that enables applications to start a TSO address space, send a TSO or ISPF command as input and receive a response as output.
Case-insensitive sort for ISPF UNIX directory list
Viewing of large UNIX directory lists in ISPF is simplified by providing an option for a case-insensitive sort for the z/OS UNIX Directory List Utility.
ISPF enhancement for Pervasive Encryption data set allocation
Support for Pervasive Encryption is improved in z/OS 3.1 by allowing the provision of the data set key label on the ISPF Allocate New Data Set and Define Cluster panels.
ISPF PDSE V2 member generations enhancements
ISPF support for PDSE V2 member generations are enhanced to allow the specification of generation numbers in the Edit and View panels and on the Edit and Browse primary commands BROWSE, EDIT and VIEW. Also, a generation list can be viewed for members with generations, allowing the use of line commands to access commonly used functions for wanted generations.
