If you develop a COBOL application with IBM COBOL for Windows and plan to deploy that application to another Windows system that does not have Rational Developer for System z installed, you must redistribute the IBM COBOL library DLLs along with the application.
These files are located in a zipped file, cobship.zip, in the subdirectory ship\cobol\ of the COBOL install directory. (The location of the COBOL install directory is specified in the Windows environment variable RDZvrINSTDIR, where v is the version number and r is the release number of Rational Developer for System z.) See the readme file in that directory for further details.
If you redistribute these files, you agree to the following conditions:
CONTAINS IBM COBOL for Windows V7.5 Runtime Modules (c) Copyright IBM Corporation 1998,2008 All Rights Reserved
Refer to the license agreement for the full list of terms and conditions for redistributing files.
