The IMS Web language environment is part of a complete end-to-end solution for running your IMS transactions in the World Wide Web environment using Net.Data. The IMS Web language environment provides:
The IMS Web Studio tool generates code for the DLL and the macro, as well as a make file for building the DLL executable, from the Message Format Service (MFS) source for the transaction and a sample HTML page for the IMS Web Net.Data application. After the executable form of the DLL has been built, the user moves theDLL and the macros to the Web server that is running Net.Data. The transaction is ready to run in the Web environment.
IMS Web uses the IMS TCP/IP Open Transaction Manager Access (OTMA) Connection to communicate between the Web server and IMS environments.
See the IMS Web home page for more information about using IMS Web.

To use the IMS Web language environment, you need to verify the Net.Data initialization settings and set up the language environment.
Verify that the following configuration statement is in the initialization file, on one line.
ENVIRONMENT (HWS_LE) hwsdll ()
See Environment Configuration Statements to learn more about the Net.Data initialization file and language environment ENVIRONMENT statements.
Important: See Setting up the IMS Web Language Environment to learn how to set up the IMS language environment.
The IMS Web language environment of Net.Data is only supported when Net.Data runs as a CGI application.
