CSCI 125: Cobol
This page is written with regards to CSCI 125 in the Fall of 2014. You will be using an application called Microfocus Cobol. This is a Cobol IDE available on the department's virtualization infrastructure.
Connecting to the virtual desktop
Instructions to connect to the virtual desktops can be found elsewhere on the wiki. Everyone in CSCI 125 has been granted access to the pool named “Cobol”. Your account is the same that you'll use elsewhere in the department (the IACC 244 Linux Lab, etc.). If you do not know your account, contact support@cs.ndsu.edu.
File Storage
Files stored on the virtual desktops are NOT guaranteed to be persistent. In addition, you are NOT guaranteed to be assigned the same virtual desktop you used previously. Save your assignment files elsewhere.
