Create the ProgramSOAP Project
Create a project for your service interface, and add files to the project.
- Start
Visual COBOL.
If this is the first time you start the application, you see the
Welcome page in Eclipse. Click
Open COBOL Perspective.
If you have already started Eclipse, click
Window > Show View > COBOL Explorer.
- From the
Visual COBOL Main Menu, click
File >
New >
COBOL Project.
- In the
Project name field, type
ProgramSOAP.
- Check
Use default location; then click
Finish.
The COBOL Explorer now shows the
ProgramSOAP project.
- From the COBOL Explorer, right-click the
ProgramSOAP project and select
Import > Import from the context menu.
This opens the
Import dialog box.
- Expand
General and click File System.
- Click
Next.
- Click the
Browse button that corresponds to the
From directory field, and browse to the
%PUBLIC%\Documents\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL\Samples\Interface Mapping Toolkit\ServiceInterfaces\ScheduleDemo directory.
- Click
OK.
- On the list of files, check all files except the
Readme XML files.
- Click
Finish.
This adds the files to the project and builds the project automatically.
Set the COBOL Build Configuration
This IMTK project requires the build action to produce a dynamic link library (.dll) file for the
schedule program. To ensure this behavior:
- In the
COBOL Explorer, right-click the
ProgramSOAP project; then select
Properties from the context menu.
- Expand
Micro Focus > Build Configurations; then click
COBOL.
- From the
Target Type drop-down list, select
All Native Library Files; then click
OK.
