Configuring a preprocessor within the COBOL editor

The Configure Preprocessor action is available if the file you are editing supports property groups.

Procedure

  1. In an open file, right-mouse click and select Source > Preprocessor Statements > Configure Preprocessor.
  2. The property group associated with the file opens for editing. If there is not a property group associated with the file, the Associate Property Group dialog opens for you to select an available property group.
  3. Complete the appropriate fields based on whether your preprocessor is local or remote. Configuration parameters for a remote preprocessor are on the Local COBOL Settings window. For a local preprocessor, click Local Preprocessor and complete the fields and close the window.
