Basic Installation
==================

The simplest way to use this package is:

  1. installing `cobc` by `configure` and `make` like opensource COBOL(C ver.).
     If error on DBLIB checking, try the following options at configure:
        --without-db
        --with-vbisam (after install at vbisam in opensource COBOL4J package)

  2. build `libcobj` java libraries by `compile_libcobj.sh`

  3. set java `CLASSPATH` environment value to `libcobj/bin` directory.

  4. compile your COBOL programs by `cobc` to create `{PROGRAM-ID}.java`.

  5. run COBOL applications by java command like `java {PROGRAM-ID}`

  6. if you want to use ISAM files, add BerkleyDBJavaEdition's jar libraries to `CLASSPATH`.
     e.g.)
	 $ CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH":'/var/lib/BerkleyDBJavaEdition/je-7.5.11/lib/je-7.5.11.jar'
