Modify Java Source Code Only
2. Build the converted application.
3. Discard the generated HTML files and copy the previously customized HTML files
to the /usr/test/inventory/bin directory.
4. Deploy and test the application.
Changes to Business Logic and Display
If the business logic changes and also new display fields are added or existing fields
are changed or removed, the corresponding changes for the web clients will be in both
the Java code and the HTML files. To generate a newer version of the web clients, do
these:
•
Reconvert the SCREEN COBOL application.
•
Build the converted application.
•
Customize the generated HTML files.
•
Deploy and test the application.
This situation requires you to reapply the screen customizations that were done before
the last deployment. If this kind of change occurs frequently, you might want to limit
the amount of customization you do to the screens.
Changes to Display Section Only
In this scenario, no new fields are added or existing fields deleted. The changes are
cosmetic and involve moving fields around or adding new or modifying existing literal
text. To generate a newer version of the web clients, the only changes you need to
make are to the HTML files. Modify the HTML files as described under 8. Customize
the Screens and then deploy and test the modified application.
Modify Java Source Code Only
To enhance or maintain the Java source files, use your choice of commercially
available Java development environments on a platform of your choosing, or use the
NonStop Kernel environment.
