Software AG Products 2.4.1 | Using Adabas Pre-Compiler on Linux | Overview
 
Overview
Before you use Adabas Pre-Compiler, verify that you have installed and configured the product correctly.
With Adabas Pre-Compiler for Linux, you can convert your existing COBOL scripts previously used on the mainframe to create executable code to run under Linux operating systems. The names of the compiled executable and the Adabas Pre-Compiler script differ depending on which third-party compiler you use on your Linux system.
The sagenv.new script, located in the <Software AG installation directory>/bin directory enables the environment necessary for Adabas Pre-Compiler to run.
Important:
Transfer any mainframe scripts you want to the local machine in ASCII format with .cob file extension.
