You enable Language Environment (LE) support by using either the
INITCALL"mfleinit"
Compiler directive, or by adding a call to
mfleinitin your code
, or by setting the ES_LE370_SUPPORT environment variable. The method used depends on how you intend to use the support.
Enable LE support depending on your application type:
JCL
LE support is enabled by default unless the name of the program you are running begins with 'MF'. In which case, set the
INITCALL"mfleinit"
Compiler directive.
CICS
For CICS applications, set the environment variable
ES_LE370_SUPPORT=Y.
Other Native COBOL Use
For any other method, for example, an IMS or standard COBOL program, set the
INITCALL"mfleinit"
Compiler directive.
Managed JVM
The Language Environment utilities are also available in managed code applications. To use them, include the
mfle370.jar file on the classpath.
- On Windows:
- For 32-bit environments use the
mfle370.jar file located at
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\bin.
- For 64-bit environments you must use a 64-bit JVM. The
mfle370.jar file is located at
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\bin64.
- On UNIX:
- For 32-bit environments use the
mfle370.jar file located at
$COBDIR/lib.
- For 64-bit environments you must use a 64-bit JVM. The
mfle370_64.jar file is located at
$COBDIR/lib.
In your JVM COBOL program, include the Compiler option ILUSING"com.microfocus.le370". For a Java program include the statement
import com.microfocus.le370.*;.
