Description
BMC AMI DevX transforms the mainframe development landscape by enabling teams to create high-quality code with increased efficiency, smoother workflows, and a more contemporary development experience. It integrates various stages of the software development lifecycle—including agile development, testing, debugging, promotion, and delivery—into a comprehensive toolchain that caters to developers of all expertise levels. By allowing teams to operate within their preferred environments, like Eclipse and VS Code, it minimizes interruptions and facilitates easier onboarding for newcomers. The platform enhances processes such as editing, building, source code management, approvals, and deployment with its Code Pipeline feature, which promotes simultaneous development, accelerates release cycles, and ensures secure delivery. Furthermore, Code Insights provides developers with immediate visibility into intricate mainframe applications, aiding in the visualization of logic, dependencies, and monolithic structures, while generative AI explanations foster quicker comprehension of complex COBOL, JCL, PL/I, and Assembler code. This holistic approach not only streamlines the development process but also empowers teams to innovate more rapidly and efficiently in a constantly evolving technological landscape.
Description
Z/XDC offers developers an interactive and source-level debugging experience for mainframe programs within any z/OS environment, enabling them to navigate through live code, monitor variables in real-time, and address issues more swiftly than conventional techniques allow. By eliminating the guesswork inherent in traditional debugging, it grants comprehensive, real-time insight into program execution and introduces advanced debugging features to mainframe development. With Z/XDC, developers can significantly cut down on debugging durations, transforming a process that typically takes days into one that can be accomplished in hours, allowing them to test hypotheses instantly without the need for lengthy recompilation, make spontaneous modifications, run “what if” scenarios, correct problems, and validate solutions efficiently. Among its capabilities, Z/XDC allows for precise line-by-line stepping through code, instant code alterations, flag adjustments, modifications of data fields and registers, control over the Program Status Word (PSW), and the ability to load or delete modules, as well as manage memory with GETMAINs and FREEMAINs, and post Event Control Blocks. Additionally, it ensures source-level visibility, allowing developers to view the code as initially written, automatically load source image maps from ADATA, and access a variety of other helpful features, making it an indispensable tool for modern mainframe programming. This integration of advanced debugging functionalities enhances overall productivity and streamlines the development workflow for programmers working in mainframe environments.
