Solution Description

A free, open source and extensible diagram editor for CA IDMS/DB. This graphical (GEF based) editor allows you to create (import) and maintain (update) diagrams for your existing CA IDMS/DB schemas. It is also capable of generating CA IDMS/DB schema syntax (export). And of course you can print your diagrams (or create PDF documents for them with PDFCreator); the diagram editor provides a basic printing functionality. While initially started as a tool to generate diagrams, you can now design IDMS databases from scratch or modify existing ones. This diagram editor is great for junior IDMS professionals to have an Eclipse based tool to explore IDMS and for senior IDMS specialists to have an IDMS-related tool to explore... Eclipse :-)

This looks like a tool that may prove quite useful in an upcoming project but I'm having issues importing schemas with area call procedures.  The error is 'Error while importing schema: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No enum constant org.lh.dmlj.schema.AreaProcedureCallFunciton.finish' and I think it has to do with the lower case 'finish'.  Looking through the code it seem line 48 of DictionaryAreaDataCollector.java should be 

            StringBuilder trigger = new StringBuilder(func.toUpperCase());

instead of 

            StringBuilder trigger = new StringBuilder(func.toLowerCase());

 

 

Looks promising as we have hundreds of schema diagrams created with Bachman years ago. Installed on Mars 4.5.1 32 bit. It looks like it's importing with no issues, however at the end of imports it throws an error popup with red x . It says File Creat... cannot resize and no messages in error log. Any help for this?

Hi Gil,

As promised a few weeks ago, the fix for your import problem (being the diagram editor to interprete the CA IDMS documentation too strict) is included in the new version, v2.0.0; which I've just published.

With this new version, you can also create diagrams for schemas containing VSAM artifacts.

Cheers,
