Integration with non-WebFacing applications

Dynamic data stream transformation allows your WebFacing application to work with non-WebFacing applications.

With a V5R4 (or later) host operating system and the purchase of the WebFacing Deployment Tool you can enable your runtime environment for dynamic data stream transformation.

With dynamic data stream transformation, your WebFacing transformed application continues to function in the Web browser even if it accesses a non-WebFacing enabled screen. These screens can include system screens and non-DDS screens, as well as non-WebFacing enabled DDS, from other applications.

Note that UIM help panels that are part of your WebFacing application must be converted at the same time you convert the rest of your application screens. The help panels are not processed by dynamic data stream transformation.

Without a valid license of WebFacing Deployment Tool, you can still try your applications with non-WebFacing applications because two trial sessions of dynamic data stream transformation are available in the Development Studio Client product for testing purposes only.

Information for the Advanced edition of the product Even without dynamic data stream transformation enabled, the Advanced Edition of the product continues to support system screens in the same way that it has since Version 5.1.2. However, with this release, you no longer need to explicitly enable system screen support when you set up a WebFacing Project.
