TXSeries docker container with COBOLIT

Technical Blog Post


Abstract

TXSeries docker container with COBOLIT

Body

In this blog we will go through including the COBOL runtime into TXSeries docker container. 

 

The TXSeries docker container is available at https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/txseries/ and a sample github project available at https://github.com/IBM/txseries-samples/tree/master/TXSeries-COBOLIT-IVP  which has the necessary Dockerfile for including COBOLIT runtime into TXSeries docker container. You can follow the github project README upon building the TXSeries-COBOLIT docker image. 

The resultant TXSeries-COBOLIT image can be used either for running  COBOL based CICS application on TXSeries region or for compiling  COBOL based CICS application. 

 

Note: The usage of the TXSeries-COBOLIT will remain as as that of ibmcom/txseries. For usage details visit https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/txseries/
