Build and Run the Project

By default, Eclipse is set to build projects automatically (see Project menu). If there are any problems, check the Problems window: errors for the project show the name of your imported .cbl source file in the Resource column. Double-click an entry to jump to the particular area of the code in error.

To run the application from Eclipse, you need to create a launch configuration.

Right-click your project in the COBOL Explorer view and select Run As > Run Configurations.
The Run Configurations dialog box appears.
Double-click COBOL Application.
Default launch configuration details for your project are displayed.
Click Run.
The following appears:
Press any key to end the application.

This concludes the tutorial in which we have created a Visual COBOL project, configured it to be highly compatible with RM/COBOL source code, and then run a small RM/COBOL program.
