Navigating Compilation Errors
You can compile or build your source files individually or by using command files.
To
compile an individual source file
1. In
the Filesystems tab, right-click
on the source file.
2. Select
Remote Compile.
To
change compilation options for an individual file
1. Select
the file.
2. Right
click and select Remote Properties.
1. Right-click
on a command file (typically a DCL procedure) that you want to use for
compiling and/or linking your source files.
2. Choose
the Remote Execute command.
This executes whatever compile, build, or link instructions are contained within the command file.
Command files are typically DCL procedures that you most likely have been using with an existing project outside NetBeans. Such files may contain many environment-specific settings that you require in order to compile or build your project successfully.
You can specify command files at the global, project, or individual file level. (For command file settings to be active, the Use Command File property checkbox at the User, Project or file level must be checked.)
To
specify command file settings at the file level
Select a 3GL language file from Filesystems and select the Remote Properties command
from the View menu or right-click the file and select Properties.
Once you have selected to use a command file, you have to specify properties, including the file's specification and a build (output) directory specification.
For this example, the DCL command that is issued is as follows:
$ @efs$:[user]buildhelloworld.com efs$:[user]main.cob |
An example of contents of the command file is as follows:
$!
buildHelloWorld.com |
