Hi Martin and Welcome !
I know a lot of people will be happy top hear that there is
another young COBOL programmer on his way and I am glad to hear
that there was a COBOL course in Sweden(I was in Sweden 20 years
ago).
I am not sure of the situation with the C++ branch but I know
there are some problems with branches being stuck at 1.1.
You don't really need a C++ branch, you can mix C++ and GnuCOBOL
2.0. You will need to wrap code in extern "C" statements. Perhaps
you could start with QT and use 2.0 for callbacks. There are
string handling issues, they are covered at the back of the user
manual and you can ask here.
I asked about JCL once and the basic answer was DON'T. It appears
to be a language that was used to make up for shortcomings in OS
that don't exist now.
There isn't a jobs list here. Others might be able to provide more
guidance as to where to post.
Sorry I don't know about sqlca. GnuCOBOL works quite well with C
if you can program in C, you could mesh mysql and GnuCOBOL by
using the straight C API and I am sure there are other ways too.
Welcome again-Patrick

Hi there,
My name is martin Lindkvist from sweden and i have
newly graduated from a cobol course in sweden. I have
during this year under my studies used GnuCobol 1.1
and realy like it.
I am realy glad to se the new 2.0 comming together. The
latest GnuCobol i have found now is GnuCobol-c++ and i
dont know if this will mean that we can start to make
qt-grafical iterfaces now with Gnucobol... This will be
great for me as i'm using kdevelop as my ide.
Right now i use kdevelop with just normal makefile and
kate-highlighting and that works good. for debugging i
have this terminal app from an italian dude . I asked in
the kdevelop forum if they knew if someone was working on
support for GNUcobol language (because i hade seen in an
relay old mailinglist that some company was making that)
but got the answer that they knew noting about anyone
doing that. I have aswell seen some where on the gnucobol
forum a question abot just that and by that time the
answer was no. So i was thinking to ask the question one
more time here and aswell inform that i could se that next
verion ov kdevelop will run on this crasy non-free system
called windblows.
And another question is about jcl... i have found many
companys that sells jcl interpreters an so on but do we have
one FREEsource for nix like systems?
And a last question...
Is there a mail-list for jobs with GNUcobol?
ohhh i missed one realy last question... right now i'm
using a precompiler for mysql but when i compiled the
GNUcobol 2.0 and started to look around in the folder i saw
a sqlca in the copybook catalog... why is that ?
Regards
Martin Lindkvist
