Before you begin, you must complete Exercise 2.3: Starting the WebFacing Web Project wizard.
On this second page of the WebFacing project wizard you need to specify the name of the iSeries server that contains your display file DDS source, as well as which members of the source file you want to convert. Specifically, the WebFacing Tool needs to know these names:
First since you are starting with a new workspace, you need to specify the iSeries server name to specify where the Data Description Source (DDS) is located.
Connecting to an iSeries
To connect to an iSeries:
The Name personal profile page opens.
The Remote iSeries System Connection page opens.
The connection name will be filled automatically with the same value.
The connection is created and can be re-used by all tools in the workbench.
The connection wizard also checks whether the iSeries host can be reached and if this test is successfully completed, you return to the Select Display File Source Members to Convert page.
A User ID and password dialog opens.
A connection to the iSeries server gets established. The library
list of your iSeries job is displayed under the Refresh DDS list
button on the Select Display File Source Members to Convert page.
Selecting DDS source members
To select DDS members to convert:
Tip: To move all members in a source file you can select
the source file icon itself and click the
push button. This will add all members in a source file to the list of
members to be converted.
The WebFacing Tool now knows which DDS members to convert for this project. The conversion hasn't been done but the information is stored for future use.
Next you convert UIM source members.
Selecting UIM source members
To select UIM source members to convert:
The Select UIM Source Members to Convert page opens.
Now you have to identify the panel group source containing the help information for the Order Entry application.
There is actually only one panel group member ORDENTRPNL in this source file.
The Specify CL Commands page opens.
You have connected to an iSeries server, selected DDS source members and UIM source members to convert and now you are ready to begin Exercise 2.5: Specifying the CL command to launch the application.
