EGL Reference Guide for iSeries
A linkage options part describes how a generated EGL program implements calls
and transfers and how it accesses files. To edit the part's
asynchLink element, do as follows:
- When you are working in the EGL or EGL Web perspective, open an EGL build
file with the EGL build parts editor.
If you do not have a file open, do as follows in the Project
Navigator:
- Right-click on the EGL build file
- Select Open With > EGL Build Parts Editor
- By default, the Outline view is open in the EGL perspective. If you
are working in the EGL Web perspective, open the Outline view by selecting
Show View > Outline from the Window menu. In
the Outline view, right-click a linkage options part and click
Open. The EGL build parts editor displays the current part
declaration.
- Click the Show AsynchLink Elements button on the editor toolbar.
- To add a new AsynchLink element, click Add or press the Insert
key, and type the Record Name (recordName) or select a record name from the
Record Name drop-down list.
- To change the default linkage type associated with your record name, you
can either:
- Select the corresponding row in the AsynchLink Elements list, then click
the Type field (localAsynch, remoteAsynch) once to put the field into edit
mode. Select the new linkage type from the Type drop-down list.
- In the Properties of selected asynchLink elements list, click the type
property once to put the Value field associated with that property into edit
mode. Select the new linkage type from the Value drop-down list.
- Other properties associated with your record name are listed in the
Properties of selected asynchLink elements list based on the linkage
type. To change the value of one of these properties, select the record
name. In the Properties of selected aynchLink elements list, click the
property you want to define once to put the Value field associated with that
property into edit mode. Define the new value by selecting an option in
the Value drop-down list, or by typing the new value in the Value
field. For some properties, you can only select an option in a
drop-down list. For other properties, you can only type a value in the
Value field.
- Modify the asynchLink elements list as needed:
- To reposition an asynchLink element, select an element and click either
Move Up or Move Down.
- To remove an asynchLink element, select an element and click
Remove or press the Delete key.
