Command interface for the import of COBOL copybooks to generate DFDL message models

One of the largest mega bank in Japan hopes to be provided the new function which is the command interface for the import of COBOL copybooks to generate DFDL message models in IBM Integration Bus.

In the past, WebSphere Message Broker firstly provided only GUI interface for MSGSET, and after that it added command interface function.
Our customer's requirement is same as MSGSET.

Now customer is considering to construct new system. The above new function of IIB is very important point whether they adopt custom development or program product (= IIB) to the new system.

    RFE Review. Apologies that the business climate has not yet enabled us to prioritize the delivery of this enhancement request. We still see value in this idea which we feel would help to encourage DFDL adoption, and so despite the relatively small number of votes gathered over the time period this request has been open, we will maintain the current status of Uncommitted Candidate and continue to monitor.

    For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:

    Thanks for raising this requirement for a commandline COBOL importer. DFDL is important for IIB, and we will look at implementing this in a follow-on release.
