Run-time System Files to Ship

Note: The following applies to native COBOL only.

CAUTION:

We recommend that you ship the whole of COBOL Server with your application. However to provide backward compatibility, you can still select and ship specific files.

If you require support for:	Files needed:
CBL_EXEC_RUN_UNIT (graphical user interface applications)	cblxecwm.exe
CBL_EXEC_RUN_UNIT (character user interface applications)	cblexecm.exe
Character user interfaces (for true console applications only)	cblviom.dll
Character user interfaces (for applications that use the default COBOL text window)	cbldwinm.dll
Enhanced ACCEPT/DISPLAY syntax (ADIS)	adis.dll
File handling or enhanced ACCEPT/DISPLAY syntax (ADIS) or OO persistence	mffh.dll
Print support module	cblprnt.dll

Other run-time support files that you might need to ship depending on the functionality that your application uses are as follows:

If your application uses:	Files needed:
Command-line Sort	mfsort.exe
Fileshare	fs.dll (server) fs.exe (server trigger) fsservice.exe (to run as an NT service) fsclose.exe (server closedown support) fsmgr.dll (manager API support)
Micro Focus run trigger program: trigger (console application) trigger (GUI application)	run.exe, and runm.exe runw.exe, and runmw.exe run.cfg shell.dll Note: run.cfg must be placed in a sub-directory named etc; it is an internal file, and must not be edited manually.
ODBC	drivers obtained separately, and odbcrw32.dll
OUTDD directive or DBCS CODESET support	cblutil.dll
Rebuild facility (command-line file recovery tool)	rebuild.exe the language files in the relevant lang subfolders. These files need to be available, and the COBDIR environment variable needs to point to the directory containing them
SQL, OpenESQL, and ODBC	csqlsupp.dll (Cobsql) odbcrw32.dll or odbcrw64.dll (OpenESQL) oesqlebc.dll (OpenESQL with EBCDIC data) ODBC drivers obtained separately mfsqlsmf.dll antlr4-runtime32.dll (OpenESQL) antlr4-runtime64.dll (OpenESQL)
