Run-time System Files to Ship

Note: The following applies to native COBOL only.
CAUTION:

We recommend that you ship the whole of COBOL Server with your application. However to provide backward compatibility, you can still select and ship specific files.

If you require support for: Multi-threading files needed:
CBL_EXEC_RUN_UNIT (graphical user interface applications) cblxecwm.exe
CBL_EXEC_RUN_UNIT (character user interface applications) cblexecm.exe
Character user interfaces (for true console applications only) cblviom.dll
Character user interfaces (for applications that use the default COBOL text window) cbldwinm.dll
File handling, for enhanced ACCEPT/DISPLAY syntax (ADIS), and for OO persistence mffh.dll
Print support module cblprnt.dll

Other run-time support files that you might need to ship depending on the functionality that your application uses are as follows:

If your application uses: Files needed:
Command-line Sort
  • mfsort.exe
Fileshare
  • fs.dll (server)
  • fs.exe (server trigger)
  • fsservice.exe (to run as an NT service)
  • fsclose.exe (server closedown support)
  • fsmgr.dll (manager API support)

Micro Focus run trigger program:

  • multithreaded trigger
  • multithreaded trigger (Windows)

 

  • run.cfg
  • run.exe
  • runm.exe
  • runmw.exe
  • runw.exe
  • shell.dll
  • utils.dll
Rebuild facility (command-line file recovery tool)
  • rebuild.exe
  • the language files in the relevant lang subfolders. These files need to be available, and the COBDIR environment variable needs to point to the directory containing them
