Application Generation

Now that we have told CA Gen how we want everything generated, we need to specify the environment that we want the generated code targeted to. We need to specify a supported Operating System, DBMS, Source Code Language, Transaction Processing Monitor, Communications, and Installation Type. Depending on the choices you make for any one of these parameters, you may then be limited in your choices on others. Your options may further be limited depending on your licensing agreements.

And as a reminder, successfully completing this section of the Tutorial requires that you have a properly configured CA Gen Workstation, Build Tool, and Runtime environment, and that you have also installed and properly configured a supported DBMS, SQL precompiler, source language compiler, Web server, Java Runtime Environment, and Java Compiler. Instructions for setting up each of these surrounding technologies are outside the scope of this Tutorial.
