Visual COBOL 2.1 Overview
Visual COBOL delivers the next generation of COBOL
development and deployment. It brings the productivity of modern, industry-leading
Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) to COBOL, including the ability to
deploy key business-critical COBOL applications to Windows 7, .NET, JVM and the
cloud.
Visual COBOL provides the most modern integrated COBOL
application development environment in the industry. It combines the leading
development environments (Eclipse and/or Visual Studio) with the most
significant COBOL update of the last decade. Visual COBOL delivers the power to
build and develop mission-critical applications on the business platform that
makes most business sense for any enterprise.
Future proof business-critical applications
Visual COBOL makes it possible to create and continue to
develop enterprise class business-critical applications that run on the widest range
of platforms. This means that existing applications can be deployed onto new
platforms, including .NET, JVM and the cloud, maintaining and extending
existing investments, as well as presenting new market opportunities.
Increase developer productivity
Visual COBOL’s integration capability with Eclipse
significantly increases developer productivity by exploiting Eclipse tools,
improving time-to-market for new products and capabilities.
Protect existing investment and intellectual property
Existing COBOL applications have extensive business logic
built into them, which contains valuable competitive advantage. Being able to
use these applications in new environments for decades to come ensures that
both investment and market opportunity are maximized.
Applications developed in Visual COBOL are deployed on the
COBOL Server deployment environment.
