CA Endevor® Package editor
The CA Endevor® Package Editor allows users to edit Endevor packages from within Developer for z/OS®.
The CA Endevor® Package Editor user
interface supports a subset of the SCL language to allow users to
edit CA Endevor® package files and SCL files, so long as the file
contains valid package commands.
Note: This interface differs from
the CA Endevor Package RAM, which supports only files with the .pck extension.
Files
containing commands that are not valid package commands display a
parse error when opened with the CA Endevor® Package Editor. When
a package is open in the CA Endevor® Package Editor,
that package is being edited. Changes made to a package in the Endevor
repository through the CA Endevor® Package Editor are
saved directly to the repository.
Note: This action differs from opening
a CA Endevor® element in the CA Endevor® RAM, where the element is
opened in browse, or read-only, mode. Changes made to the element
are not saved directly to the repository.
The Package
Editor is divided into three parts, the Command
Table, the Source Preview Panel,
and the Command Controls. It is marked with
the Endevor Package Editor icon, 
.
Version Compatibility
If Developer for z/OS is connected to an 8.0.1 server or earlier, then you cannot edit CA Endevor packages. CA Endevor® packages are not listed in the CARMA Repositories view, and there is no way to open those packages in the Package Editor.
