Building applications and routines written in COBOL

Build scripts for various operating system platforms are provided with the product. The embedded SQL applications in COBOL can be built with these files. Aside from build scripts used to build applications there is a specific bldrtn script provided used to build routines (stored procedures and user defined functions). When working with applications written in the Micro Focus COBOL language on Linux, be sure to configure the compiler to be able to access certain COBOL shared libraries. IBM® COBOL samples are provided and can be found in the sqllib/samples/cobol directory for UNIX and sqllib\samples\cobol directory for Windows, for the Micro Focus COBOL samples directories replace the 'cobol' at the end of the path with 'cobol_mf'.
