The Janus Debugger is a tool designed for software
developers who create and maintain Janus Web Server applications.
The Sirius Debugger by contrast is designed to debug classical
screen-based 3270 applications as well as batch applications.
Both of these debuggers share a common GUI-based client.
The two debuggers are tightly integrated with Model 204 and the Sirius Mods,
supporting the Object-Oriented contructs provided by the Janus middleware.
The Sirius wishlist is both a list of things people would like to see in our
products and a list of features we plan on adding to those products.
It is maintained online so that all customers can monitor and influence our
product planning process.
Visit the wishlist to ensure that our plans
correctly reflect your needs.

Build 52 of the Janus/Sirius Debugger Client
was released in August of 2010. Recent enhancements to the debugger client include better
suport for multiple monitors, and better integration with existing proxy servers when
the 'Automatically Maintain IE Proxy Settings' preference is selected. Please note
that since Build 51, the client requires the .NET 3.5 SP1 runtime.
Version 7.7 of the Sirius Mods was released
in March of 2010, building upon the Unicode support delivered in prior versions.
Version 7.7 continues the trend of using XmlDoc objects to support high-level APIs.
A “record to XmlDoc” method provides a high-performance mechanism to export data
from Model 204 records.
A corresponding “XmlDoc to record” method enables a robust facility for copying records between
Model 204 files as well as among onlines.
Version 7.7 also enhances the Private Key Infrastructure (PKI) support in the Janus middleware,
including a facelift for the
Janus Network Security Reference Manual.
SirAud Version 1.05 was released
in December of 2009.
Version 1.05 supports merged journals and z/OS “large datasets”.
Additional reporting options include the ability to sort procedure displays by procedure name or
total screens.
Version 1.05 is compatible with current Model 204 releases, including
V6R1, V7R1, and several limited distribution versions.
This will be the last standalone version of SirAud; Future versions will
use a system class within the Sirius Mods to produce XmlDoc
aggregations that are processed into reports via User Language.
Version 7.6 of the Sirius Mods was released
in November of 2009, essentially completing the foundation for Unicode support within Janus.
XmlDoc string values are internally stored as Unicode (as required by the XML standard), entity support
allows Unicode characters to be conveniently printed or displayed in EBCDIC environments, additional Unicode
intrinsic methods are provided, and a UnicodeNamedArrayList class supports pure Unicode applications.
Version 7.6 also delivers a SAX-style stream XML parser for those applications interested in only a
small sub-tree of a large XML document.
The addition of methods as first-class objects and method variables has enabled a pair of uniquely
elegant and powerful facilities for sorting and searching collections of objects.
And SirFact dump processing has been brought back in sync with all of the new O-O features.
