--netexe

The " --netexe" compiler option generates a .NET executable file for command line execution. The name of the executable is the name of the program followed by ".exe." All valid ACUCOBOL-GT command line options can be specified with the executable, as well as any of the following Linkage Section parameters:

For example, the compiler command:

ccbl32 --netexe MyCobol.cbl

results in two files being created: the COBOL object, "MyCobol.acu," and the .NET executable, "MyCobol.exe."

You can execute the .NET version from the command line with "MyCobol.exe" or you can include command line options and linkage section parameters, as in:

MyCobol.exe -d -int:1234 -string:"Enter customer name"
