You can convert a Java™ BOM and map Java data types to PL/I structures so that the converted BOM uses data structures, class types, and characters that are compatible with PL/I.
About this task
To run business rules in PL/I, the BOM must contain PL/I
structures. You can then generate a PL/I include file from it. You
can also generate a PL/I include file from several BOM entries. Note: You
cannot use a BOM that is based on a dynamic XOM to generate a PL/I
include file.
Procedure
- Right-click the rule project and then select .
- In the PL/I Enabled BOM pane, click Add.
- In the Select BOM entry dialog, select
a BOM entry that you want to enable for PL/I, and then click OK.
The table on the page Configure type setting for
PL/I items shows the default mapping between the Java structures in the BOM and the
PL/I structures.
You can change the following default PL/I mapping:
- The PL/I Name
- The PL/I Type Format
- The PL/I Type
You can also disable the PL/I mapping for some BOM attributes
by clearing the corresponding Enable check
box. The disabled attributes are not included in the generated include
file.
- When you are satisfied with the mappings, click Finish.
- Optional: Add another BOM entry that you want
to enable for PL/I and repeat steps 3 and 4.
