Enterprise Developer enables you to automatically convert JSON data and generate COBOL classes when you paste the data into a COBOL file which is part of a .NET COBOL project.
This converts your JSON data to COBOL classes and adds it to the COBOL file.
The class and property names are generated as follows:
The following example shows the result of converting some film data in JSON format to COBOL classes using Paste JSON As Classes:
JSON code | COBOL classes |
---|---|
