Configure the JVM COBOL File Handler

Configure your applicatons to use the JVM COBOL file handler when your intended environment does not permit the use of native code.

To configure the JVM COBOL file handler:

• Update the CLASSPATH to use:
  • mfcobolpure.jar, instead of mfcobol.jar
  • mfcobolrtspure.jar, instead of mfcobolrts.jar
• Add mffilehandler.jar to the CLASSPATH

Now, when you use one of the common file handling statements, such as OPEN, READ, or WRITE, the JVM COBOL file handler is invoked.
