Linking on Windows Systems

On Windows systems, routines are linked into the ACUCOBOL-GT runtime DLL ("wrun32.dll"), not the runcbl program ("wrun32.exe"). Note that both the standard runtime and the Web runtime use the same DLL.

Required Software

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005

Linking the Standard Runtime

To make a new standard runtime for Windows, load the "wrun32.sln" solution file into Visual Studio 2005 and build. By default, "wrun32.sln" is located in the "lib" subfolder of "acugt".

Linking the Alternate Terminal Manager Runtime

To make a new Alternate Terminal Manager runtime for Windows, load the "run32.sln" solution file into Visual Studio 2005 and build. By default, "run32.sln" is located in the "lib" subfolder of "acugt".

Linking the Console Runtime

To make a new console runtime for Windows, load the "crun32.sln" solution file into Visual Studio 2005 and build. By default, "crun32.sln" is located in the "lib" subfolder of "acugt".
