COBOL Copybook OTD

When an OTD is built from a copybook file, it creates an OTD which contains methods that may be used with the converted contents of the copybook business object.

Figure 1–17 Sample Copybook OTD

The figure above shows the Copybook Converter OTD built from the sample copybook qan3glr1.cobol. The OTD has a node for each of the business processes that may be performed on the converted copybook. The unmarshal method allows business processes to flow data into the copybook OTDs and access contents field-by-field.
