you cannot generate a DLL from a RM/COBOL object files.


But depending on what you are trying to achieve you may be able to still access the COBOL program.

So please give us full details of what you are trying to do, and also what version of RM/COBOL you are using, and what will be the runtime version you will run your programs with (they do not need to be the same).

i'm developping a client server software,the server receives requests from clients and process them by calling some cobol routines .I'm using visual c++ 6 to build the clients and the server ,the routines are in cbl files and i've got rm/cobol 8.5 compiler version 6.10.1 for dos 3.3+

hope that i was clear
and thanks again

I STRONGLY advise you to contact Liant sales for evaluations of their new products.

Depending on what you are developing your product for they may even have a product that already does what you need.


So please contact them, explain what you are trying to do (with more details than what you have given us here), and see if any of their new products can help you.

As usual, Frederico is correct. We have hundreds of customers building client-server software, but not with products that old! Please contact Liant sales.
