Forced installation of COBOL Language Support by COBOL Control Flow #57
Comments
Hi Denis, thank you for your feedback and the missing documentation updates reminder (it will be fixed in the next patch release). To provide the most accurate graph, CCF requires advanced syntax analysis that can only be provided by COBOL LS. It cannot be integrated with any other tool.

In the meantime, if you prefer, you can still downgrade to the previous version 1.0.5 |
Hi @zimlu02, I understand that there will be no going back on the dependency between CCF and COBOL LS... As far as we are concerned, COBOL LS is essentially missing the dynamic management of conditional compilation, which appeared with IBM Enterprise COBOL V6, and which is standardized COBOL ISO. |
Hi,
It seems that since the version 1.0.6 of COBOL Control Flow, the installation of COBOL Language Support is mandatory and automatically triggered...
This does not meet our expectations because while we like COBOL Control Flow, we do not use COBOL Language Support, and do not intend to use it...
COBOL Language Support conflicts with the extension that we have chosen to use to manage our COBOL sources, in particular on the search for COPYBOOKs, but surely on other points as well.
It also triggers false problems on certain COBOL syntaxes.
However, it is indicated at the COBOL Control Flow level that the use of COBOL Language Support is recommended, but not required.
COBOL Language Support cannot be uninstalled or disabled without also uninstalling or disabling COBOL Control FLow.
Is this a definitive situation, or is it possible to return to the previous situation where COBOL Language Support is not mandatory?
