AT A GLANCE
Field size increase projects usually have a high impact on the related source code, requiring painstaking updates to the code manipulating that field. Adjusting the affected code is time-consuming, tedious and error-prone for development teams and constitutes a major cost in IT.
THE SOLUTION
To solve this problem, ARCAD provides a powerful source code refactoring solution called ARCAD-Transformer, to automate between 50 and 100% of modifications to source code, in the case of field size extension, or changes in field type.
ARCAD-Transformer brings huge productivity gains in such refactoring projects, typically exceeding 50%. Further, by maximizing automation in all phases, the reliability of the resulting application is significantly improved.
Knowing the power of the ARCAD-Transformer tool, ARCAD Software - and certain certified business partners - can conduct such projects for you at a fixed price. By simply filling out a detailed questionnaire, we are able to provide you with a total cost.
The services we can provide are :
- Cleanup of existing application (archiving of all obsolete components), using our ARCAD-Audit tool,
- Transformation of your source code with special markup options for traceability,
- Mass compile of all impacted components,
- Generation of data retrieval programs,
- Merge of existing modifications during the project itself,
- Automation of the testing phase using our ARCAD-Verifier tool,
- Transfer to test and to production, using our ARCAD-Deliver tool.

Software factory for Unicode projects
If you need to install and run your native AS/400 applications on a DBCS machine, you will then need to think about transforming them into Unicode. ARCAD-Transformer is the ideal and most elegant solution for this.
