There are couple of Opentext/Microfocus programs which are used to call the API, which have the Additional Directives of nsymbol(national) and intlevel(6). What "COBOL Dialect" should be used in VS 2022 program settings to compile these programs. Should it be "Enterprise COBOL for z/OS" or "MicroFocus" or something else?------------------------------Keerthi Shekar ShivaprasadSoftware Development LeadOwens & MinorMechanicsville VA US------------------------------

As I wrote in another thread I'm connecting to a database using a custom account. The account's path is: /u2/quiter/POSVENTA5 In that path I open a file, for example: /u2/quiter/POSVENTA5/BP/ACCSCR0 Then I try to click on another definition (ACCSCR0) to open it: * Carga datos IF HAY.AUTOFILL=1 THEN CODIGO.ED=XDATO * Lee registro CALL ACCSCR1(MAT XQ,MAT XXQ,XK,XMACRO,MAT XFIELD,XA,XV,XRESUL,MAT ENTR,XSTACK) END ELSE The editor then tries to open the file in /u2/quiter/POSVENTA5/ACCSCR1 instead of /u2/quiter/POSVENTA5/BP/ACCSCR1 so it fails. How can I fix the search path for the editor? Is there a way to do something like this: https://rocketsoftware.github.io/rocket-mvbasic/usage/Catalog/ for online editing? ------------------------------Héctor CortigueraQuiter Servicios Informaticos SL------------------------------

Serveral questions here all in regard the the RunUnit in COBOL .NET.1. In COBOL .NET you can spin up a RunUnit and do work, then suspend the RunUnit in a rununitcache (ConcurrentDictionary).A ConcurrentDictionary is stored in process, is there any way to store a suspended RunUnitin Redis or something similar?So if you are scaling out across servers you could pick up that RunUnitregardless of the server you hit via it's id or something?2. What else could I do with a RunUnit other than start, stop, dispose, SetUserData & GetUserData that might add value?3. Can you get the ID of a RunUnit inside the RunUnit? 4. Is there a limit to amount of RunUnit's you can spin up under say C# rest api? Neil ------------------------------Neil HayesSoftware Development Specialist------------------------------

Hi all I'm trying to connect to our database using the Visual Studio Code extension. I've configured the server data in the JSON file, but it's connecting to a XDEMO account so it's not useful to me. So, the account is XDEMO and it connects to the server in this path: "/usr/uv/XDEMO" In our database, we have several accounts: "POSVENTA5", "GEN4GL", etc. I need to connect to one of this accounts, that are in the path "/u2/quiter/POSVENTA5", etc. How can I do this?------------------------------Héctor CortigueraQuiter Servicios Informaticos SL------------------------------

Hi everyone, COBOL has powered the world’s economy for decades, delivering reliability and scalability. Yet myths and outdated views persist, even among those who have worked with it. Many still picture COBOL as it was 30 years ago, missing how much it has evolved. Let’s separate myth from reality and give you the facts to talk about COBOL with confidence.  Myth #1: COBOL is no longer in use. Reality: According to a Vanson Bourne survey, over 800 billion lines of COBOL code are active worldwide. While new COBOL applications are rare, existing systems are regularly maintained and expanded, adding more code each year. Myth #2: COBOL can’t integrate with new tech stacks. Reality: Rocket® COBOL integrates with JVM and .NET platforms, making it compatible with today’s languages and contemporary IT architectures like microservices. COBOL's portability has enabled enterprises to use their core business logic across every era of IT without requiring a complete rewrite. Myth #3: COBO

I have been struggling this for a few days now. This works of course in Terminal. When you right-clock on a program in VSCode, the bottom  two menu items are Catalog and Compile. I have researched this and it would seem several configurations need to be in place.  I do have the ssh configs set up, the BP file in the workspace, but it never finds the file or the program. Does anyone have the steps to rectify this? Thanks in advance,  Roy.

Hello Everyone! We found that in version 8.2 path 7, HLLX integration in the checkin, build, recompile, and relink functionalities does not communicate with XML in terms of consistency and variable content modification.When HLLX is called from the ISP or client pack panels, it returns an error message, but when called via XML, it does not return an error as expected. Could you please inform if there is an enhancement planned for this item?------------------------------Mari SekineBanco Bradesco S/ASão Paulo BR------------------------------
