Create a build configuration

The build configuration settings for the project enable you to specify settings that are passed to the compiler, including pre- and post-build events, and additional library and resource files. This tutorial requires that your project is enabled for debugging.
  1. Right-click your project in the COBOL Explorer view and select Properties.
  2. Expand Micro Focus and select Build Configurations > COBOL.
  3. Ensure New Configuration [Active] is selected.
  4. Ensure that the settings for your project match these:
    Field Value
    Output path New Configuration.bin
    Target Type "Single Executable File"
    Enable configuration specific settings (in the Override Project COBOL settings section) Selected
    Compile for debugging Selected
  5. Click OK.
