Before you can develop dynamic scripting applications,
you must make the CICS® TS Feature Pack for Dynamic Scripting V2.0
target platform available to your dynamic scripting applications.
Before you begin
Before you can make the
CICS TS Feature Pack for Dynamic Scripting V2.0
target platform available, the following conditions must be satisfied:
- You have the latest level of service installed in your CICS Explorer® SDK.
- The CICS Explorer SDK is
started.
About this task
A target platform consists of a set of plug-ins and environment
settings that are used to satisfy dependencies that are required in
your application development. CICS provides
a run time platform template that contains all the plug-ins for each
level of CICS for which you
can build applications. The name of the
CICS TS Feature Pack for Dynamic Scripting target
platform is "CICS TS V5.1 Runtime
with PHP".
Procedure
- Click Window > Preferences from
the workbench menu bar to open the Preferences dialog. Expand Plug-in
Development and click Target Platform. The Target Platform pane shows the target definitions
that exist in your Eclipse environment. If CICS TS V5.1
Runtime with PHP is in the list, the target platform is
already available to your applications, so click Cancel,
and ignore the following steps in this procedure.
- Click Add to add a new target definition. The New Target wizard opens.
- Click Template, from the Template list,
select CICS TS 5.1 Runtime with PHP, then click Next. The Target Definition editor is displayed. Using the editor,
you can change the properties of your target definitions, add other
library bundles that are installed in CICS runtime,
change the Java™ level, and change
other properties. In most instances the default properties are suitable,
but you can change them to suit your own requirements. For more help
about the editor tabs, press the F1 key (Ctrl+F1 on Linux).
- Click Finish, then click OK.
Results
The
CICS TS V5.1 Runtime with PHP target
platform is available to your dynamic scripting applications.
