Web Option Considerations

Web Option consists of the following shipped objects:

• An IBM i library known as the Web Option product library, or Y2WEB.

  Y2WEB contains the Web Option non-data objects such as programs, service programs, and job descriptions.

• An IBM i library known as the Web Option LDO library, or Y2WEBVENG.

  Y2WEBVENG contains the English Web Option LDO data objects such as files, message files, and commands.

The Y2WEB and Y2WEBVENG libraries are linked through the use of a data area in Y2WEB named YW2ELDORFA, which contains the name of the Web Option LDO library that is currently being used. They are also linked through the WEB2E_SVR job description in Y2WEB, which includes both Y2WEB and Y2WEBVENG in its initial library list. These objects are used when Web Option environments are created.

Notes:

• CA Provides additional Web Option LDO libraries for languages other than English. These libraries are named Y2WEBVxxx, where xxx is a three letter language code. For example, FRN for French and DTC for German.
• Throughout this document, we use the default names Y2WEB and Y2WEBVENG in code samples and command examples. However, because you can custom-name these libraries or might be using a different language LDO library, be sure that you modify the samples and examples accordingly.
