Overview:
IBM Rational® Programming Patterns is a collaborative Integrated Development Environment part of the Jazz™ Collaborative Lifecycle Management solutions. It provides Pattern Driven Programming features for an enhanced coding experience combined with tools for impact analysis, quality control, and extensibility as well as procedures for automatic Pacbase applications secured migration.
Delivery of files to the server
Use Engineering Workflow Management (Rational Team Concert) to control the delivery of the Rational Programming Patterns files to the server to ensure that the files uploaded to the server do not cause errors
Manage data tables
Use Pactables to view the contents of data tables or the tables subsets, update the contents of the tables online or batch mode, and ensure that the descriptions and contents are consistent.
Automate the development process
This integration is possible but its implementation is manual. You can import the Rational® Programming Patterns data into Endevor through Engineering Workflow Management (Rational Team Concert) if you have previously used the Pacbase - Endevor bridge.
Features:
Secured migration
Procedures migrate at a low cost the Pacbase assets to a comprehensive and strategic development environment that surpasses Pacbase capabilities. The generated code is syntactically equivalent to the Pacbase code.
Design features
Data description patterns help to master the information concept of an IT system in a form that is understandable by a business domain specialist and consumable by software developers.
COBOL source management
An extended COBOL code editor facilitates the maintenance of user code through filters, wizards, syntax highlighting, content assist, real-time syntax check, and interactive debugging.
Extensibility
The Software Development Kit makes the development of a new generator easier by breaking up the complexity of a transformation into small tasks through Micropatterns and Skeletons.
Integration with Rational Team Concert
Procedures for extracting projects or components from Rational Team Concert and importing them are available. Impact analysis and multi-criteria search, as an extension of the Rational Team Concert repository services, contribute to increase the maintenance productivity.
Benefits:
Modernize development
Uses the Pacbase MDD approach, providing new models for data, batch and transactional applications and generators, targeting IBM Z® systems and Jazz-based repository services for Pacbase artifacts.
Improve collaboration
Provides a collaborative integrated development environment (IDE), enabling developers to maintain individual productivity while unifying development processes and tools with IBM Z systems and Java®.
Extend value
Enhances utilization of IBM Developer for z/OS® and IBM Rational Developer for AIX® and LINUX® through a dedicated COBOL source code editor with features that optimize tasks in COBOL source code.
Increase productivity
Includes impact analysis and multi-criteria search services for development artifacts stored in Rational Team Concert repositories.
Secured migration
Provides procedures for extracting projects or components from VisualAge Pacbase and importing them into Rational Team Concert. Also enables transition from other 4GL through extensibility APIs.
Extensibility
Provides APIs to support new application or technical architectures, and a Software Development Kit (SDK) to target the developments in a specific language or for a particular operating environment.
