When you migrate your RM/COBOL applications to
Enterprise Developer, you can continue to use the same data files.
Configuring Access to RM/COBOL Indexed Data Files
You can access RM/COBOL indexed data files by mapping the filename to a compatible index format in the Micro Focus File Handler configuration file.
File Limits
When using RM/COBOL indexed files in Enterprise Developer, there are a number of file limits that affect file handling operations.
RM/COBOL File Status Codes
You can set the file handler to return 2-digit RM/COBOL file status codes. You can also return 4-character or 11-character extended file status code, using the C$RERR standard library routine.
Debugging JVM COBOL Using RM/COBOL Indexed Files
When debugging managed COBOL applications containing RM/COBOL indexed files, you must set the RMFM_PRETEND_FORCE_CLOSED environment variable to avoid the file becoming corrupt when debugging ends.
