Claim:
1. A method, the method comprising: in a hardware processor, graphically building a COBOL application processing vector in a graphical user interface of a transactional workflow driver (TWD) by: deploying the COBOL application processing vector using the TWD, utilizing one or more service request message application program interfaces (APIs) for one or more transaction servers or transaction managers; managing interactions with the COBOL application processing vector using the one or more service request message APIs to satisfy service request messages responsive to the interactions; receiving, using the TWD, a user interaction for the COBOL application processing vector through the one or more service request message APIs; translating, using the TWD, the user interaction into a COBOL application processing vector service request message for the COBOL application processing vector; identifying, using the TWD, which one of the one or more independent COBOL processing components with which to communicate the COBOL application processing vector service request message; communicating, using the TWD, the COBOL application processing vector service request message to the identified one of the one or more independent COBOL processing component; executing, using the hardware processor, the identified one of the one or more independent COBOL processing components responsive to the COBOL application processing vector service request message; receiving, using the TWD, a return code from the identified one of the one or more independent COBOL processing components; determining, using the TWD, whether the return code includes: in instances when the return code includes a result, communicating, using the TWD, the return code in a service request response message through the one or more service request message APIs to the user.
