Converting TELON COBOL to Java / C#
There are many CASE Tools in the legacy world. Amongst them, TELON has one of the best "COBOL" code generators. The generated COBOL code is readily legible, understandable and a good starting point for legacy translations
However, like all code-generated COBOL code, the COBOL code generated from Telon has certain duplications in code and certain "patterns" of operation. A good translation of such code should take these duplications and patterns into account, and following features available in SoftwareMiningh's Converter would help to further improve maintenance of the applications
- removal of unused COBOL Data Structure from each program
- normalization and reuse of COBOL structures
- automatic extraction of "Business-Objects" from PROCEDURE DIVISION code
CA-TELON COBOL to Java/C# Migration Project Phases
|
The Migration of COBOL applications to Java or C# involves:
- Asset Management: Identify all the artefacts required for translation .
- Translate to target language
- Database and Data Migration
- Migrate JCL
- Create and Populate of Test Database
- System acceptance testing
- User Acceptance Testing
- (Optional): Other Improvements: Screen Redesign, SOA Integration, Cloud Deployments, Coding Improvements and clean up
