Once you have created a project, you need to add the source files to it and then compile the project. To add a new file to the project:
This starts the New COBOL Program wizard.
This creates a new COBOL source file from the default template and opens it in the editor. The file is shownin the COBOL Programs category under the project in the COBOL Explorer view..

By default, Eclipse is configured to build projects automatically. If this option has been changed, to manually start a build, select the project in the COBOL Explorer view and click Project > Build Project.
Building the project creates a new folder in your project - New_Configuration.bin. Expand the folder in the COBOL Explorer view to see the executable and the .obj files.
