Hi,

I downloaded Visual Cobol 8.0 for Eclipse (vce_80.exe) and its update (vce_80_pu01_308901.exe) as well as the Eclipse environment (eclipse-inst-jre-win64.exe ; JRE 17.0.4.1). So far, "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" is on my machine and I am trying to install VC8.0 on this Eclipse. Unfortunately, I don't succeed and I am wondering if the Eclipse IDE is the good one.

May you please tell me if the 8.0 version runs on the latest version of Eclipse, and if yes, which IDE I should download and install.

Tahnk you very much,

There is no need to install Eclipse separately. The vce_80.exe installer will by default install a version of Eclipse and install itself into it. Visual COBOL 8.0 ships with Eclipse 4.20 (2021-06).

If you do wish to install Visual COBOL into a different instance of Eclipse then you can follow the instructions in the product documentation here
