The fourth generation features of iSeries related to the use of standards include:
- Correct use of libraries
- Use of effective naming conventions
- Use of verb-object syntax for commands and programs
- Use of an object-oriented design approach
- User interface design standards
- Object-oriented design
- Use of commands
- Use of messages
- Use of help text
- Normalized file design
- Set of data modeling
- Performance conscious design
- File independence
- Database design and coding standards
- Online development techniques
- Use of design tools
- Testing techniques
- Naming conventions
- Automatic documentation techniques
- Lessons for modularization
- Use of messages
- Work management standards
- Shipped system concepts
- Coding standards
- Lessons for modularization
- Use of APIs
- Correct use of user profiles
- Correct use of object authorities
The CA 2E standards consolidate the collective practical experience of many people who have used the midrange architecture for application development. There are obvious limits as to how far practical experience can be reduced to succinct principles; as a consequence, the level of discussion in this manual varies from general to specific.
