CA Gen r7 z/OS Runtime Architecture Changes

> z/OS Runtimes keep pace with IBM

> z/OS C Runtime Upgrades in CA Gen r7

� Runtimes converted from SAS/C to IBM C

� Exploits IBM Language Environment (LE)

� Runtimes are now Threadsafe capable

CA Gen r7 Productivity Improvements

> Enhanced Build Tool Provides

� parallel builds

� common UI and functionality on UNIX and Windows

� build applications remotely across the network

> Encyclopedia Multi-object delete capability

> Java Proxy API more efficient and easier to use

> Improved tutorial, documentation and online help reduces learning curve

CA Gen r7.5 Highlights

> Overview

� Support for Linux Server

� ASP.NET Enhancements

� Dynamic CSS

� z/OS Runtime

� Precision Math Libraries

� Many more including ~50 Enhancement Requests

Gen r7.5 Support for Linux Servers

> Linux generation support on Intel x86 (or compatible) 32-

bit hardware for

� Implementation Toolset

� Transaction Enabler

� User Funnel

> C applications support for

� Online

� Block mode

� Distributed process server

> Generated applications use embedded SQL to access

Oracle or IBM DB2 UDB databases

CA Gen r7.5 Dynamic CSS

>Java Web Generation now supports generation

of display properties as cascading style sheets

>Enables modification of a common business

system cascade style sheet and influences the

appearance of all windows and controls in a

business system

>An overriding CSS file may be used to supersede

the style statements in a generated common

business system cascade style sheet

CA Gen r7.5 z/OS Runtime Performance Improvements

> Runtimes updated to full IBM Language

Environment (LE) conformance

� Improves storage management performance

� Runtimes are fully re-entrant and threadsafe

� Most runtimes reside in a small number of DLLs

and called dynamically

Precision Math Libraries

> Underlying decimal precision math libraries changed for C

applications

> Applications should use less CPU resources

� Those with long complex expressions or many database

accesses should show the most improvement

Current ReleaseCA Gen r7.6

CA Gen 7.6 Datacom Support

> Provide data modelling support, generating DDL and

applications

� Online block mode applications running under CICS

� CICS distributed process servers

> Schema Import Plug-in for CA Datacom/DB schema

CA Gen r7.6 Features

> Compatibility Module Support for z/OS

� Reference the “CA Gen r7.6 z/OS Statement” of Direction

paper on SupportConnect.

> Feature Enhancements

� Web Generation Performance

� ASP.NET 2.0

� Build Tool Usability

> Cross Context Flows

CA Gen r7.6 Features

> Diagram Trace Server

� Java, C# and C generated applications to include the

following features (and more)

– Execution Control

– Conditional Breakpoints

– Watch Window

– Action Diagram Viewer

– Step Features including customer events

– Customizable syntax coloring

Cross-Context Flows

> When Web Generation procedure steps are deployed in

separate web applications.

> Facilitates models developed using CBD modeling

techniques.

> Large deployments may be broken into smaller

deployments.

> A single model can be separated into multiple web

applications and deployed in separate contexts.

z/OS Compatibility Feature

> r7.6 Compatibility Priority Enhancement allows build of

non-DLL modules

� In beta spring 2007

� For details, see the CA Gen z/OS Statement of Direction

paper on SupportConnect.

Plans and Ideas for the CA Gen r8 Series

SOA & Web Services Plans

> CICS Web Services
