Gentlemen,
Thanks for the responses, my world nowadays is a PC with 1990's Cobol/CICS
software (no Web stuff),
so looking for GUI/Web front ends for my generator without the
knowledge/tools is awkward, but what I've gained is a good start ..
Craig - I can't read CBT775; its a zip containing one .XMI; on a PC, what
can read a .XMI? Would really like to look into this one. You really started
something with POX:-)
Eric - haven't looked at your site yet.
Tim - lots of pointers, thanks, will go there.
John - my PC - it doesn't know about //.. ASMA90etc - sounds like answers
I'm not going to see.
Chuck - will be looking at your site.
George - can you have a copy - NO. :-) It's just not ready yet, almost
demonstrable, website sometime this
summer where you'll be able to try it.
Rich - my terminolgy is naive but . . on my Agent software newsgroup is
bit.listserv.cics-l - nobody posts there so I went to bit.listserv.ibm-main.
That's what I meant about dormant CICS. I do subscribe to the CICS-L listerv
and get all the emails but (probably my ignorance) never seemed to be able
to post there. Bill Klein has mostly set me straight. My original post
should have gone to CICS-L.
? - whoever mentioned Rational Developer for Systemz - yes am looking into
it.

Subject: Fw: CICS/BMS greenies to GUI's
This note was posted directly to the USENET newsgroup and hasn't had many
replies. I am forwarding it to the list-server, to see if more people
have
input on it. (It is also in the comp.lang.cobol newsgroup).

Hello,
Big technical challenge for me so here I am again. Is CICS but that
group seems dormant.
I have a small system that generates Cobol/CICS programs but
particularly generates several BMS Assembler macros (old green
screens). After compiles and assembles the CICS transaction works
fine. This is stuff I know well.
Very briefly, the BMS I generate looks like:
. . DFHMSD . . etc
. . DFHMDI . . etc
. . DFHMDF's
etc
END
But I'd like to also generate a GUI frontend be it/they Java or HTML
or what other possibilities are there.
Might anybody have any pointers as to where I might begin? Articles,
references, code samples (especially), etc?
Thanks.
Graham Hobbs
