Running with Database Bridge

If you plan to run your programs having Database Bridge as file index, then additional work is required.

1.	Ensure that EDBI subroutines have been generated in your project (see Generating Database Bridge subroutines for details).

2.	Add the JDBC driver library provided by your database vendor to the project Classpath. Click on Project menu, select Properties, select Class Path from the tree. Click on the Add Jar button and browse for the JDBC jar file.

3.	Set iscobol.file.index=easydb in the configuration (it can be done anywhere in the configuration, it doesn’t matter if your program performs SET ENVIRONMENT before opening a file or if you prefer to edit the iscobol.properties file).

Set iscobol.jdbc.driver, iscobol.jdbc.url and any other applicable JDBC setting for your database connection in the configuration (it can be done anywhere in the configuration, it doesn’t matter if your program performs SET ENVIRONMENT before opening a file or if you prefer to edit the iscobol.properties file).

4.	Edit the Run Configuration of your program and, in the Classpath page, bind the proper database routines set:

5.	You’re now able to run your program using Database Bridge.
