You can use COBOL and Java together, by coding the calls using the supplied support libraries.
Restriction: This applies to native code only.
Using Java and COBOL Together
This chapter introduces the different ways that Java and COBOL applications can call each other.
Calling Procedural COBOL from Java
This chapter describes how you can access legacy procedural COBOL programs from Java using the support provided in the com.microfocus.cobol.RuntimeSystem class.
Calling Java from OO COBOL
This chapter shows you how to code a COBOL program to call Java methods using the OO COBOL Java domain.
Calling OO COBOL from Java
This chapter describes how you can access COBOL objects from Java programs. This is slightly different from the method for accessing procedural COBOL from Java programs.
Java Data Types
This chapter describes how COBOL and Java data types are mapped on to each other.
