Micros-patterns "iterate" et "leave" pour remplacer op?rateurs GB et GT

Bonjour,

Avec la disparition du Langage Structur?, la notion de niveau de fonction/sous-fonction est moins apparente pour le d?veloppeur qui travaille surtout avec le code Cobol.

Je propose la cr?ation de deux nouveaux micros-patterns pour g?rer les sorties contr?l?es de fonction/sous-fontion :

1) ITERATE : passer ? l'it?ration de boucle suivante

Syntaxe : ITERATE F<ff><ss>

Le label "F<ff><ss>" est le code de la fonction/sous-fonction qui contr?le la boucle en cours.

Ce micro-pattern est l'?quivalent d'un op?rateur GB nn, mais bas? sur la notion de label et non sur la notion de niveau.

2) LEAVE : quitter le bloc

Syntaxe : LEAVE F<ff><ss>

Le label "F<ff><ss>" est le code de la fonction/sous-fonction qui contr?le le bloc en cours.

Ce micro-pattern est l'?quivalent d'un op?rateur GT nn, mais bas? sur la notion de label et non sur la notion de niveau.


En cas de recodification de fonction/sous-fonction, il faudrait que les labels pr?sents dans ces micros-patterns ITERATE et LEAVE soient automatiquement recodifi?s ? l'identique.

Pour les fonctions automatiques, (en particulier sur les Ecrans pour les traitements associ?s aux Rubriques et Segments), le label n'est pas connu ou peut varier avec le temps. Il faut donc un label "relatif" qui pourrait s'exprimer sous la forme "*<element>", (Pour les Ecrans, <element> ?tant le code de la Rubrique ou du Segment ? l'origine de la fonction automatique).

Cordialement,

Denis FALLAI

    A preliminary evaluation of this request indicates that it is consistent with our business strategy. Further evaluation of this RFE is underway.

    This RFE's Headline was changed after submission to reflect the headline of an internal request we were already considering, but will now track here.
