Develop scripts with the script workbench for collaborative MDM

The script workbench for IBM® InfoSphere® Master Data Management Collaboration Server contains a script editor that you can use to help create or update a script. The script editor is automatically started on a new script and is created with the script creation wizard. The script editor can be started on an existing script by double-clicking on the file.

The script editor extends the basic editor functions that are provided by Rational® Software Architect.

The added function helps the preparation of editing InfoSphere MDM Collaboration Server scripts. Some of these functions are:
  • Color coding of keywords and sections of the code to help visually separate the various statements within the script.
  • Ability to easily comment out sections of code.
  • Double-click to highlight sections of code that is enclosed by brackets, braces, or quotation marks. This function is useful for ensuring that sections of code are properly delineated.
  • Outline view to help search around the file.
  • Integrated parser and semantics checker.
  • ToDo comment support.
  • Errors in the construction of the script are flagged enabling errors to be removed at editing time.
  • Content assist functions to interactively provide help on script functions and functions that are defined within the script.
