Project configuration information

This section describes the project configuration details that are required as input when creating a new project or when updating an existing project created from load library, application, or invalid data detection scan reports.

Target COBOL install location
The COBOL 6 compiler install location.
Listing location
Data set name that contains the COBOL 6 compiler listing files. If listing files are not available, create an empty MVS data set and enter its name in this field.
Source file location
Data set name that contains the COBOL source files on the mainframe. For multiple data sets, separate each name with a comma. For example, DATASET1,DATASET2,DATASET3.

If your source files are stored locally, or if you want to use the AI code assistant, you must perform a mapping between the mainframe source and your local folder so that identical copies exist in both the locations. To specify the mapping, use a colon(:) between the dataset and local folder path, and separate each mapping with a comma. For example, DATASET1:/path/folder1,DATASET2:/path/folder2.

Copybook location
This field is optional. If the copybook source is stored in a different data set than the source code, specify the local copybook folder path along with the corresponding copybook data set name. You must perform a mapping between the mainframe copybook data set and your local folder so that identical copies exist in both the locations. To specify the mapping, use a colon(:) between the data set and local folder path, and separate each mapping with a comma.
