Issue/Introduction
Looking at the Gen .NET/CLR/C# platform as an alternative to current use of Gen under z/OS/COBOL/CICS/DB2
How to generate batch packaged jobs in CLR/C#/MSSQL in the same way as z/OS/COBOL/CICS/DB2?
Environment
Resolution
Batch Packaging/Generation for .NET/C# is not supported.
Also the alternative Online Packaging for PSteps with Step Properties set to Online="no Display" is not supported for C# code generation.
The only feasible option is to create a batch type process by creating a .NET hand-coded application which uses the Gen .NET Proxy to call a Gen .NET server.
The only feasible option is to:
- Repackage the existing Gen batch packaged PStep as a Cooperative Server PStep to create a .NET Server.
- Then create a batch type process with a .NET hand-coded application which uses the .NET Proxy to call the .NET server.
The .msi file built for the .NET Server will deploy to IIS and executes as a COM+ application within Component Services.
Similarly the .msi created for the .NET proxy will also deploy to IIS
Additional Information
Note: Batch Processing is implemented in z/OS environments as a batch job using JCL. In other environments, batch processing is implemented as online with no display.
