The files contained in the Docker demonstration for the Visual COBOL base image are as follows:
| bld.bat | Batch file to automate the process of building
Visual COBOL images.
For full details on the parameters you can specify to bld.bat see Running the Docker Demonstration for the Visual COBOL Base Image. |
| bld.env | Configuration file defining various environment variables that are used while building the images. The environment variables define details such as the names of installable files and strings to be used for different parts of the image names. |
| convsetx.ps1 | PowerShell script file used by Dockerfile.x86 and Dockerfile.x64 to configure the COBOL environment to make it specific to 32-bit or 64-bit applications. |
| Dockerfile | Dockerfile used to build the base
microfocus/vcbuildtools:win_4.0 and
microfocus/vcbuildtools-build:win_4.0 images.
For a detailed look at the commands used in this file, see Dockerfiles in the Docker Demonstration for the Visual COBOL Base Image. |
| Dockerfile.nojava | Additional Dockerfile to produce a base image for Visual COBOL that does not include Java support. You might want to use this if your system already includes a number of different versions of Java and you don't want to introduce another version unnecessarily. |
| Dockerfile.x64 |
Dockerfile used to build the
microfocus/vcbuildtools:win_4.0_x64 and
microfocus/vcbuildtools-build:win_4.0_x64 images based on the
microfocus/vcbuildtools:win_4.0 and
microfocus/vcbuildtools-build:win_4.0 images respectively.
This is a very simple Dockerfile that uses the convsetx.ps1 PowerShell script file to customize the COBOL environment for use with 64-bit applications. |
| Dockerfile.x86 | Similar to Dockerfile.x64 but builds the microfocus/vcbuildtools:win_4.0_x86 and microfocus/vcbuildtools-build:win_4.0_x86 images for use with 32-bit COBOL applications. |
| palic.env | Configuration file used to specify the name of the license (.mflic) file for Visual COBOL. |
| prodver.env | Configuration file containing a setting that specifies the version of Visual COBOL that this Docker demonstration is supplied with. |
| README*.* | Files for HTML and plain text documents containing instructions on how to build the Visual COBOL base images. |
| server-jre-8u162-windows-x64.tar.gz | Package containing files for the Java Platform Standard Edition Runtime Environment. This is required to provide support for Java. |
| vcbt_40.exe | The installable executable file for Visual COBOL Build Tools for Windows. |
