Note:This draft document describes RKTools V7.7, which is still in development. Until the commercial release of the software, Rocket reserves the right to add to, remove, or change anything described herein.

Release notes for the components of RKTools that have been updated for version 7.7 are listed below.

Note: RKTools 7.7 runs only on Model 204 version 7.7 or higher.

Overview

The RKTools 7.7 release is comprised of:

  • RKTools subsystem: Provides access to all RKTools (formerly UL/SPF tools) from the TN3270 interface.
  • Dictionary/204: As of version 7.7, Dictionary/204 is integrated into RKTools, and it is accessible through the RKTools RKWeb interface, as well as from the Model 204 command line as before. The Dictionary/204 wiki pages primarily describe the TN3270 screens, as their appearance and functionality is mirrored in the RKWeb Manage > Dictionary view, which uses Janus Web Legacy Support to map the Dictionary/204 TN3270 screens to your web browser.

    The Dictionary/204 subsystem management tool (SUBSYSMGMT), however, is incorporated in a non-Legacy views in RKWeb (the Manage > Subsystem Management menu options).

  • RKWeb: Provides an easy-to-use web interface to many of the RKTools.

    New to RKTools in version 7.7, RKWeb provides an integrated environment merging the members of RKTools without distinguishing them as individual products.

    The RKWeb tools are provided in a common framework, providing a highly productive web interface to common Model 204 functions.

    RKWeb provides a task-based UI for SOUL application development. Tasks are divided into three functional areas: Build, Manage, and Monitor. A command processor is also available in each functional area.

Note: RKWeb requires that you have Janus Web Server set up on your system.
