    On December 16 we extended our Code4z family with the addition of two new extensions.


    Debugger for Mainframe


    Provides the debugging interface to CA INTERTEST™ for CICS. This extension provides a modern debugging experience for COBOL applications running in a CICS region. The extension is free of charge, but an InterTest server needs to be set up before the extension can be used. -> VS Code marketplace location https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=broadcomMFD.debugger-for-mainframe


    HLASM Language Support


    Provides smart editing capabilities such as code completion, highlighting and navigation features, shows mistakes in the source, and lets you trace how the conditional assembly is evaluated with a modern debugging experience. The extension is free of charge, so anybody can use it.

    -> VS Code marketplace location https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=broadcomMFD.hlasm-language-support.

    The HLASM extension is open sourced, so anybody can become a contributor and extend it. (https://github.com/eclipse/che-che4z-lsp-for-hlasm)


    Both extensions will soon be included in the next Eclipse Che version, so you can leverage their functionality in the Kubernetes native cloud environment.
