Problem:

What can EnterpriseLink Builder do?

Resolution:

A 100% Java application, Builder provides everything a web developer needs to rapidly construct professional, dynamic web pages from the object representation of the host function captured during the Loader phase.

Builder uses a drag-and-drop object assembly metaphor for building web page templates that are automatically populated with live data when the application is running.

Builder is the first presentation integration tool that can run on Solaris, Linux, and AIX, giving your UNIX developers the tools they need to integrate to mainframe applications.

Builder infers the transformation rules from the author's drag-and-drop actions, freeing the author from manually programming the behavior of each screen element and every screen transition. It can combine many application and data elements: host screens (one or more screens on a single web page), tables from a host database, data from a relational database outside the host system and even entire Java Applets or ActiveX plugins. The application author can also add special-purpose JavaScript to the web page.
