Object-oriented syntax, and Java 6 or later SDKs

How do I run existing COBOL applications with Java 6 or later?

Earlier versions of Enterprise COBOL applications that use object-oriented syntax for Java™ interoperability were supported with Java SDK 1.4.2 and Java 5.

To run these applications with Java 6 or later, do these steps:

  1. Recompile and relink the applications using Enterprise COBOL V5.2 or later.
  2. Recompile the generated Java class that is associated with each object-oriented COBOL class using the javac command from Java 6 or later.
