Method and apparatus for developing scripts that access mainframe resources that can be executed on various computer systems having different interface languages without modification

摘要

A system for converting software commands generated in a UNIX-based first programming language environment to software commands that operate in a second programming language environment. A first computer system generates input data signals in a first program language. A plurality of vendor second computer systems each have a second high-level program language different from each other and different from the first program language. A translation device is interposed between the first computer system and the plurality of second computer systems for storing a plurality of translation command rules for performing each high-level language program designated by an input data signal. The translation device receives a data command signal in the first program language containing a vendor identification data portion and a command data portion in the programming language of the UNIX-based first system and provides a corresponding output command signal in the language of any selected one of the vendor second computer systems.
