Enhancements to Developing Applications on a Remote Machine

Previously, this product depended on Samba or NFS to transfer and manage the project files on a remote UNIX machine. Remote Server Explorer (RSE) was only used to build the applications on remote machines.

"Remote file system (RSE)" is now the default option in the Create Remote COBOL project wizard for managing the files of remote COBOL projects. RSE establishes a connection with the remote machine and is used to transfer and manage the project files on it.

Important:
  • You must use SSH connection and not DStore for remote COBOL projects created with Remote file system (RSE).
  • You can still use Samba and NFS as file system providers. On system where SSH is not allowed, you can use SAMBA and DStore connection to transfer and manage the files on the remote system.
