Programming Fundamentals Workshop Using WDSC
(WebSphere Development Studio Client)

This is an introductory-level programming workshop for COBOL programmers new to the iSeries. This workshop covers the approved ANSI COBOL '85 Standard and the draft ANSI COBOL '97 Standard, as well as the iSeries extensions to the standards for the ILE compiler.

This course is the second in the Agidigm curriculum for COBOL ILE on the iSeries featuring the WDSC development tool. This is an introductory-level workshop for COBOL programmers who are new to the iSeries development environment. Participants will develop an operational understanding of the COBOL ILE compiler and extensions, as well as the WebSphere Development Studio Client for the iSeries (running on a Windows-based PC).

Program Objective:
Following the successful completion of this course, participants will be able to create operational COBOL programs using the Integrated Language Environment (ILE) for COBOL, and the WebSphere Development Studio Client for the iSeries.

Specifically, participants will be able to create operational COBOL programs using the following techniques:
    »  Write COBOL ILE programs to produce reports.

    »  Write simple COBOL ILE inquiry programs that interact with displays.

    »  Use an editor to enter and modify source programs to compile COBOL ILE
        programs.

    »  Review compilation listings, and find and correct compilation errors, and
        compile COBOL ILE programs.

    »  Maintain existing applications written in the COBOL ILE language
        using the ILE Source Debugger tool.

 
 
    »  Using the ILE Source Debugger tool, determine the cause of incorrect results.
    »  Select COBOL ILE intrinsic Built-in Functions.

    »  Write COBOL ILE programs to produce reports.

    »  Write simple COBOL ILE inquiry programs that interact with displays.

    »  Use an editor to enter and modify source programs to compile COBOL
        ILE programs.

    »  Review compilation listings, and find and correct compilation errors.

    »  Maintain existing applications written in the COBOL ILE language using
        the ILE Source Debugger tool, determine the cause of incorrect results.


Who Will Benefit From This Course:
This course is primarily intended for programmers who are transitioning to the iSeries COBOL ILE environment from:

    »  Another high-level language on the iSeries

    »  An IBM main-frame COBOL environment to the iSeries

    »  Non-IBM platforms using COBOL


This course will also benefit new programmers who need additional hands-on instruction and classroom learning opportunities with COBOL. Individuals who are interested in learning COBOL on the iSeries should consider attending Agidigm's Introduction to iSeries COBOL and Batch Processing Fundamentals (C101) course. Experienced COBOL ILE programmers should consider attending Agidigm's Intermediate COBOL ILE Programming Workshop (C103) course.

Senior programmers who have in-depth experience with COBOL ILE should consider attending Agidigm's COBOL ILE Advanced Topics for the iSeries (C104) course.
