cobol - Calling application from rails -


I have an existing website / application that uses COBOL-CGI where filling data using the COBOL app placeholder Creates the page.

Now I want to create a rail site which, besides using our own DB, should also call external information for receiving various information.

Is this application still cgi? Is there a better way to call 3rd party applications from Rail? ActiveX?

You probably want to do it in a slightly different way. You can call the Rail app to COBOL CGI, but is currently building HTML, which you have to scour for the data.

Perhaps you would be best to modify the COOL, which includes some simple representation, down to and only one CSV file, though YAML or JSON can be easy to use. Then you can open the COBOL application, and capture its output for use by rail applications.
