Testing a TIP Transaction from Eclipse

You can use the following code to test a TIP transaction:

public class TipTransaction
{
 public static void main(String args[])
 {
   Trans_Legacy tx = new Trans_Legacy();
   try
   {
     String input = "<enter the transaction input here>";
     byte[] txInput = input.getBytes();
     byte[] txOutput = tx.callTrans(txInput);
    TipAllDataBufferWrapper wrap = new TipAllDataBufferWrapper(txOutput);

     System.out.print(wrap.getBuffer());   

}
   catch (Exception e)

    {
     e.printStackTrace();
   }
 }
}

• Replace "<enter the transaction input here>" with the TIP input transaction parameter.

• txOutput produces the output in byte[] format.

• Pass the txOutput as a parameter to auto generated TIP transaction wrapper class. For example, the class TipAllDataBufferWrapper is an auto generated wrapper class.

• getBuffer() returns transaction output in String format. You can use getters and setters methods for Java variables to view the corresponding COBOL record values.
