Compiling and Running your project
Building and rebuilding
Once your program is written you highlight the project -- that is the first
entry in the window. You casn either click right and select build (or rebuild if you have sucessfully built before and have hanged the file). This builds
the executable. However you won't want to do this until you have gotten
the syntax errors out of the source file. For this it is easier and in
general less demanding of resources to compile just the source file.
Compiling
You do this befroe building because you may not have completed the
program and you want to see if it is syntactically correct. For this
highlight the .cbl file, click right and select compile.
Running your project
Once you have built your project, you select execute from the project
Menu. When the dialog box comes up set the correct value for
SYSIN -- highlight it, choose the value and then click set,
and for SYSOUT. Click OK and your program should run.
CHECK YOUR OUTPUT BEFORE YOU HAND ANYTHING IN
Your program is supposed to produce output that matches the requirements
of the project.
I will take off credit if your output is not of the required form.
