Note:
- This version of the product is a full install.
- If you have an earlier version of
Visual COBOL installed on your machine, check
Installing as an Upgrade before you start the installation.
These are the steps to install
Visual COBOL:
- Run the
vce_40.exe
file and follow the wizard instructions to complete the installation.
By default, this installs
Visual COBOL in the
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL folder and installs a full version of Eclipse 4.7 64-bit, with the
Micro Focus plugins already installed, in the
C:\Users\Public\Micro Focus\Product Name\eclipse directory.
The setup file installs any missing prerequisite software as listed in the topic
Software Requirements.
Note: See
Advanced Installation Tasks for information about non-default installation tasks. For example, to stop the product installation from installing the version
of Java shipped with the product, run the setup file from the command line with the
skipjre=1 command line option; otherwise, if the installation detects a version of Java older than the shipped version, it will install
the shipped version.
