1. Are CA-Telon maintenance genlevels cumulative?

Clients often call technical support wondering if the CA-Telon maintenance genlevels are cumulative. For example, "if I am running genlevel 9711, can I place maintenance genlevel 0006 right on top of it?" The answer to this question would be no. Only CA-Telon base product tapes are cumulative, not genlevel maintenance tapes. Note, however, that base product tapes are available at each genlevel and using a base product tape you can upgrade from any previous genlevel to the most current. It is required that you install your new CA-Telon base product tape into a new CSI (that does not have a previous CA-Telon 2.4 release), otherwise the target libraries will not get populated during the apply.


2. Before I install the latest product maintenance tape that was sent to me, I would like to know what fixes are on the tape. How can I obtain this information?

You do not even have to install the product to get this list. If you unload file #9 from the tape, you will create a PDS that will include the member #FIXLIST. The PDS that will contain #FIXLIST is called SAMPJCL. The member #FIXLIST will define all the fixes that have been incorporated into this latest genlevel/service pack. NOTE: If you are performing a full product install (base install) for any genlevel, you will be considered to be at a new product base and will not receive the #FIXLIST file as the product is considered new to you.


3. Can I upgrade easily from CA-Telon 2.0 and/or 2.1 to 4.0?

Yes, just bring up your current TDF VSAM files with the new CA-Telon loadlib.


4. Define CA-Telon. What is CA-Telon?

{Computer Aided Software Engineering} (CASE) tool for designing, generating and maintaining {COBOL} and {PL/I} {application programs}. Telon was developed by {Pansophic} Systems who were bought by {Computer Associates} in 1991, whereupon it was renamed CA-Telon. It supports high-level, non-{prodedural} design and prototyping, combined with automatic {code generation}. There are {mainframe} and {PC} versions. The generated COBOL applications can execute in {AIX}, {HP-UX}, {VSE}, {OS/400} for the {AS/400}, {PC-DOS}, or {OS/2}. (2000-01-19)


5. Does CA-Telon handle changes to a program's Custom Code when the modification is related to items such as a change in the environment, a change in Data Access, or an upgrade from OS/VS COBOL to COBOL for OS/390?

No. Although CA-Telon resolves user-written Custom Code in the appropriate place in a generated program, it never alters the content of the code. The programmer is responsible for making all changes to Custom Code.

6. Does CA-Telon support HALDB (partitioned DBDs)?

Support for IBM's new IMS/ESA Partition Support Product, which (in IBM's words) "blows the 4GB lid" off HDAM and HIDAM databases, has been added to the latest CA-Telon release, 4.0. It is now possible to import DBDs that include PART (partition) invocations using CA-Telon's standard Database Import utility. Once imported, each PART is treated by CA-Telon as a DATASET. The code generated for DATASET data access works for PARTs as well. CA-Telon accepts all valid PART parameters (PARTL, DD1, DEVICE, MODEL, DD2, OVFLW, BLOCK, SIZE, RECORD, RECFM, SCAN, FRSPC, REL, ROOT, HIGHKEY), though it does not store or use PARTL, ROOT or HIGHKEY.


7. Does it do everything Telon does ?

Yes, mostly. Although Casegen is easier to use and has more features. There are some unusual facilities in Telon that are rarely used that are not in Casegen. However,these are being added as time goes on, and if they all important to you - we will provide them prior to your purchase. We DON?T support AS/400 or the ADASBAS/IDMS databases, or TSO as a target yet but we try wherever possible to fit in with our client or prospective client?s needs as quickly as the functionality is needed.


8. Does it generate ADABAS ?

No.


9. Does it generate DL/I calls ?

Yes, but we support the CALL interface NOT the EXEC interface.


10. Does it generate IDMS ?

No.
