COBOL (/ ˈ k oʊ b ɒ l,-b ɔː l /; an acronym for "common business-oriented language") is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use. It is an imperative, procedural, and, since 2002, object-oriented language.
PACBASE was an early advanced computer-aided software engineering (CASE) software for mainframes and Unix systems from CGI (Compagnie Générale d'Informatique, a French software house) that supported a wide variety of databases, including DB2 and Oracle. [1] PACBASE generated COBOL code for the servers, and Visual Age for PACBASE was used to ...
IBM Db2 Community Edition is a free-to-download, free-to-use edition of the IBM Db2 database, which has both XML database and relational database management system features. Version 11.5 provides all core capabilities of Db2 but is limited to 4 virtual processor cores, 16 GB of instance memory, has no enterprise-level support, and no fix packs ...
Use of IBM COBOL was so widespread that Capex Corporation, an independent software vendor, made a post-code generation phase object code optimizer for it. [3] The Capex Optimizer became a quite successful product. [4] Although the IBM COBOL Compiler Family web site [5] only mentions AIX, Linux, and z/OS, IBM still offers COBOL on z/VM and z/VSE.
GnuCOBOL translates a COBOL program (source code) into a C program. The C program can then be compiled into the actual code used by the computer (object code) or into a library where other programs can call (link to) it. On UNIX and similar operating systems (such as Linux), the GNU C compiler is used for this process.

This numbering is generated by Natural during program creation. Line numbers used by the compiler and editors, and can have important logical functions in the programs. Comments can be included in two ways: Full-line comments are identified by a "*" or "**" prefix. Annotated code lines have a "/*" - everything to its right is a comment. Examples:
TELON supported multiple database technologies, including IBM's VSAM, IMS/DB, DB2, plus Cullinet's IDMS. TELON is an application code generator that uses macros to generate COBOL, COBOL/II, or PL/I code that can run natively in the target environment without run-time proprietary code. Developers create screen designs in the TELON Design ...
