Note:
- Before installing, check
System Requirements. Also, check
Installing as an Upgrade, if you have an earlier version of
Visual COBOL installed on your machine.
- This version of the product is a full install.
- The setup file installs
Visual COBOL and Eclipse 4.4.2. After the installation is completed, you can install
Visual COBOL into other versions of Eclipse such as version 4.2 or 4.3 for the 32-bit Eclipse only - see
Installing
Visual COBOL into other instances of Eclipse for instructions.
These are the steps to install this product:
- Run the
vce_23.exe
file and follow the wizard instructions to complete the installation.
By default, this installs
Visual COBOL in the
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL folder and installs a full version of Eclipse 4.4.2, with the
Micro Focus plugins already installed, in the
C:\Users\Public\Micro Focus\Product Name\eclipse directory. The setup file installs any missing prerequisite software as listed in the topic
Software Requirements.
Note: If you have Java 7 installed on your machine and you do not want the setup file to install Java 8, you can install the product silently and use the
skipjre=1 command line option to skip installing Java 8. See
Installing Silently
for more details.
