Working with Projects

Creating a new Project

In order to use isCOBOL IDE to create and maintain COBOL programs, one or more projects must be created. A Project is a container for programs that share the same settings and resources.

To create a new Project in a workspace, right click in the isCOBOL Explorer area and choose New / isCOBOL Project from the pop-up menu. A wizard will ask for project name and location, compiler options and additional jar libraries. The only mandatory information is the project name, all other settings can be done later by clicking on Project menu and selecting Properties from the list.
