| Plugin | Description |
|---|---|
| OpenCobol | OpenCobol is an open source cobol compiler. Its use allows the developer to apply locally on his workstation syntactic verification of source code. |
| IDE Cobol | Cobol IDE which converts the platform into an integrated Cobol software development environment in Eclipse. This project is currently archived, but Metrixware continues to maintain it actively. |
| JCL Editor | Editor with JCL syntactic coloration and, along with the mainframe Host Integration Module, submission of the currently edited JCL. |
| REXX Editor | A simple REXX editor with syntactic coloration. |
| SCM support | Cobos integrates natively eclipse-compatible SCM tools like CVS, Subversion, GIT… Additional ergonomic simplification is provided for users. Note for mainframe users: a CVS server can be installed on UNIX part of a mainframe (USS: UNIX System Services) supporting EBCDIC-ASCII transaction. |
| je3270 | The je3270 plug-in that enables access to the mainframe through 3270 emulation (based on the x3270 emulator). |
| Host commands | This plug-in allows you to launch REXX or SHELL scripts from Eclipse documenting parameters in a form. It is thus possible to use the working procedures of the site without leaving Eclipse. |
| z/Navigator | The z/Navigator in Cobos lets you browse, edit, create and move data sets directly on the mainframe depending on the Host Integration Module your implement. |
| Host Integration Module | For a targeted host, a set of scripts (SHELL or REXX) implementing access and manipulation of host resources, such as host compilation, site procedure launching… This module is currently available for mainframe target (starting with ZOSV1R9) allowing you to access to resources like PDS, your mainframe SCM like LCM, Endevor… and of course, to compile a source on the mainframe and retrieve the error messages as if it had been compiled in Eclipse. |
| SC for Eclipse | In order to optimize the quality of the code, SC for Eclipse controls the quality of the Cobol programs. Developpers run the code analysis command and SC for Eclipse will check that development rules and defined programming standards are respected. Any violation against those rules will be highlighted for correction. Sources of this plug-in are not provided. |
