Using the Container Demonstrations

Enterprise Developer includes a number of container demonstrations that illustrate typical uses of containers with COBOL applications.

These container demonstrations include Dockerfiles and related batch/script files to simplify the process of running them, and this documentation contains descriptions of the files that comprise the container demonstrations. After running the container demonstrations and reading this documentation to help you familiarize yourself with how the demonstrations work you will have all the information you need to enable you to build and use images for use with your own COBOL applications.

The container demonstrations are supplied in the file ed_build_tools_dockerfiles_100_windows.zip which is accessible from the same place that you accessed the Enterprise Developer installation file. Unzip ed_build_tools_dockerfiles_100_windows.zip into a folder of your choice to create a series of folders containing the container demonstrations.

Each container demonstration includes the following:
