Building COBSQL Applications with Eclipse

Attention: The following applies to COBSQL applications you develop on a local UNIX machine, or when, from a Windows machine, you develop remote projects on a UNIX machine.

If you are working with a COBSQL/Oracle application, you need to change your project build settings. In your local Eclipse IDE, once you have created a project containing the Pro*COBOL application, you need to update the project properties as follows:

  1. In the COBOL perspective, select your project in the COBOL Explorer window.
  2. Click Project > Properties.
  3. In the Properties dialog, expand Micro Focus and click Build Configurations.
  4. Click Link.
  5. Expand Additional Link Directives.
  6. In the text box, type -e program-name.
  7. Click OK.
