A new "JZOS Cookbook" package is now available on alphaWorks, which might be of interest to those who would like to do Java development on z/OS.
See: http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/zosjavabatchtk for more information. Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies =========================== "Introduction" The JZOS Batch Launcher and Toolkit shipped with the IBM Java SDKs for z/OS is a suite of tools and APIs for z/OS Java. The JZOS Batch Launcher simplifies running Java applications in z/OS batch jobs, while the JZOS toolkit provides Java interfaces to z/OS datasets and system services. The approach in this cookbook is to use a simple, but non-trivial example application to demonstrate the following: • Development and testing of z/OS Java applications using Eclipse • Deployment to z/OS using Apache Ant • Running z/OS batch Java applications using the JZOS Launcher • Demonstrate how to use the following Java and z/OS programming interfaces: • SQL database access • Dataset access - sequential and VSAM • XML processing • Mapping COBOL described records to Java • Demonstrate the use of popular open source Java tools: • Spring framework • Apache Derby • Apache Commons Digester, Logging and BeanUtils • Apache Log4J • JUnit • Apache Ant • Provide complete source, packaged in an Eclipse project, which can be used as a template for new development. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
