Command line reference

A range of command line utilities and interfaces are available for creating, building, debugging and running COBOL applications.

Important: If you installed Visual COBOL in a folder other than the default location, which is /opt/microfocus/VisualCOBOL, you must run the following script before you can use the command line tools:
. /opt/microfocus/VisualCOBOL/bin/cobsetenv
This applies to UNIX environments (remote development) only.

Note that cobsetenv is only compatible with POSIX-like shells, such as bash, ksh, or XPG4 sh. It is not compatible with C-shell or pre-XPG4 Bourne shell.
