7.17.3 Software Requirements for Microsoft Windows Server 2019 (32-bit)

Component	Requirement
OS Version (Patches)	Windows Server 2019 (64-bit)
C/C++ Compilers	Microsoft Visual Studio 2022
COBOL Compilers	Micro Focus Visual COBOL 7.0
.Net Framework	Tested with .Net Framework 4.8
Java/JRE for the Java run-time environment	Tested with 1.8.0_341, 11.0.17 and 17.0.5
Java Development Kit (SDK)	Tested with 1.8.0_341, 11.0.17 and 17.0.5
Database	Tested with Oracle Client 19c

Note:

• ATMI users need a C, C++ or COBOL compiler.
• CORBA C++ users need a C++ compiler and linker.
• When using buildnetclient to build 32-bit .net client, the following flags are needed: -csflag "/platform:x86"
• If Micro Focus Visual COBOL 7.0 compiler and Microsoft 2022 C/C++ compiler are used, the -l -link /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /ENTRY:<entry> link option should be used when compiling a COBOL client. For example, buildclient -C -o CSIMPCL -f CSIMPCL.obj -f cbllds.obj -l "-link /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup
• For compiler compatibility:
  Look for documentation from the compiler vendor that provides assurance that the version of compiler you want to use is compatible with the tested version of the compiler. The compatibility assurance must be provided for the following:

  • Source Code:

    C/C++ source code that was compiled and linked using the tested version will compile with the newer version of complier without requiring any changes.

  • Executables and libraries:

    Libraries and executables built using the tested version will run with libraries and executables that are built with the newer version of compilers.
