Hi , I'm using Visual Cobol for Eclipse on Redhat, trying to migrate from Server Express to Visual Cobol, so I have to compare the Compile Result between them. and find out all reasons if difference exists. I set verbose = true, then the compile result outputted, On Server Express, here's the compile results for [list] * Accepted - nolist* Accepted - list("XXX1.lst") but on Visual Cobol, [cobol] * Accepted - NOLIST [cobol] * Accepted - LISTPATH"Listing" 1 The [NOLIST] is the same , but why [list("XXX1.lst")] outputted on Server Express ? How to set compile option that makes Visual Cobol output it too ? 2 Visual Cobol outputted [LISTPATH] and Server Express did not. It is effect anything? If [LIST PATH] is only a message for reminding something, then I don't have to change it. Thanks
