CA Gen Main Menu

The CA Gen Main Menu lists the host functions:

Host Encyclopedia Functions include functions such as user access, model management, and subset management that let you add, change, and delete data in the Host Encyclopedia. They also let you monitor user access to CA Gen and to the contents of models and subsets.

Public Interface Functions include model export and import functions. The export function stores model data in separate tables, for access by PI views. Using the PI views, you can create reports that are tailored to your needs. The import model function creates a model from files that are created outside of CA Gen, typically from data that is contained in some other data management product.

Application System Functions is the name for the Construction functions used to generate and install application systems. The Application system functions are described in this guide. All other CA Gen host capabilities are described in other CA Gen Encyclopedia guides.

Environment specification lets you specify JCL for CA Gen functions that execute in a batch environment, such as, copy model, generate DDL, and generate source code. You can also select CA Gen panel colors for your environment and sort options for selection lists using this option.
