Transform COBOL payloads to Java, XML or JSON

LegStar generates COBOL Transformers.

At runtime, mainframe data (containing EBCDIC, COMP, etc.) is transformed to Java, XML or JSON.

The LegStar Transformers are pure Java and can be used directly in your code.

Service-enable a COBOL/CICS program

LegStar generates Mainframe Adapters for target CICS programs (Either Commarea or Container driven).

Adapters are ready to deploy in JAX-WS, JBoss ESB or Mule ESB.

Access remote services from COBOL/CICS programs

LegStar generates Mainframe Proxies for POJO, Web Services, JBoss ESB or Mule ESB services.
