4.5 Generating the binary format definition file from COBOL Library Text File

Generating the binary format definition file from COBOL Library Text file is a function that converts the specified COBOL Library Text File to the binary format definition file.

When you use this function, you can automate the generation of the binary format definition file from COBOL Library Text File. Therefore, effectivity of data transformation work can be plotted.

Following figure shows the image of data transformation by using the function for generating the binary format definition file from COBOL Library Text File:
