The client is looking for a code sample to pass a String Array from Java to
COBOL, there is this demo available but it does not show how to pass strings
(everything else it seems), see:
C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Micro Focus\\Net Express 5.1\\Examples\\Net Express
IDE\\JAVADEMO\\COBOL\\ARRAYS

I found a previous topic which sounds a bit similar but not to do with arrays: community.microfocus.com/.../266_Visual_Cobol_Sample_With_Java

Could I ask if anyone has a sample available that they could provide or
point me to? I cannot find anything specific that would help.

Kind regards
Kim

Kim,

If the customer wants to work with arrays of Java objects (strings are objects) it will be necessary to use Object COBOL rather than procedural COBOL. Although the JAVADEMO\\OOCOBOL\\ARRAY sample does not use strings the same principles demonstrated in the arraydemo.cbl can be used with an array of strings rather than an array of integers.
