vUniverse2020 Native COBOL to .NET Visual COBOL

In this short video we introduce the Micro Focus Visual COBOL OO syntax. We will create a small demonstration and explore the syntax.
This is an introduction and not in depth. Ideal for those familiar with C#/Java and curious about using COBOL as an OO language.

First in a series of three quick and simple demonstrations of Visual COBOL as a .NET langauge.

This follows in my mini-series of webinars. I want to demonstrate the developing of COBOL applications. This is a very simple introduction to the everyday use of COBOL within the Visual Studio development tool.
No slides, I promise.

This presentation follows the COBOL Basics presentation previously. In this webinar we look at the three key Micro Focus COBOL variants and explain the products that form the core COBOL products.

A short presentation on the Basics of the COBOL language. This is not a presentation on the syntax, but more on the context of COBOL.

A brief presentation of Visual COBOL and a demonstration of Visual COBOL in the Visual Studio IDE.

COBOL applications continue to evolve into valuable business process assets, but do we really know what these systems actually do? Watch how COBOL Analyzer can uncover the hidden processing and data access in COBOL applications, with visual representation. COBOL Analyzer will enable you to explore your COBOL applications and report on their health.

This webinar is relevant to users of most Micro Focus COBOL product ranges, including Net/Server Express (and prior versions), Visual COBOL, RM/COBOL and ACUCOBOL. COBOL Analyzer is the distributed version of Enterprise Analyzer.

In this presentation see how Visual COBOL can be used to re-use existing COBOL business processes in hybrid Java (JVM) solutions. This is a high level presentation demonstrating the benefits of re-use over re-write.

Discover how Micro Focus COBOL is quickly reused in the Java World and blended into new hybrid applications.
It's quick, flexible and minimal risk. Why re-write when you can re-use?

Moving from traditional COBOL data files to RDBMS can be daunting and time consuming, requiring significant COBOL development effort and long lead times to production.

Now is the time to consider automating this process, improving data availability and maintenance. Join Micro Focus on 29th March to:

•Discover the challenges of moving to RDBMS
•Explore the tools to deliver RDBMS quickly
•See how easily a COBOL or non-COBOL developer can realise
the benefits of RDBMS
•Watch the demonstration of the process in action
•See how we can now access the data using any language or application
