GUI Control Enhancements

isCOBOL Evolve 2023R2 introduces support for drag-and-drop for GUI controls to let developers imagine new ways to interact with their application.
The grid now supports load-on-demand for its content, delivering faster load times and a smoother user experience.
Filters have been improved and can now show entry fields for filtering data more effectively.

Java Version Selection

The isCOBOL IDE 2023 R2 includes a new feature that allows you to run or debug programs using specific JRE versions for each project.
Applications may need to be run using different Java releases for multiple reasons; for example when using Object Oriented Programming with dependencies on classes compiled with specific JDK releases. You can now choose the JRE version for each project from the list of installed JREs.

TurboRun Feature

The new TurboRun feature improves performance of COBOL batch programs that are executed sequentially by running them in the Application Server Java Virtual Machine, saving the cost of initializing a JVM for each application. Using the Application Server JVM boosts performance even further, since it uses the cache and the JIT (Just-In-Time) optimizations that are already running.


Details on these and additional features can be found in the isCOBOL Evolve 2023 Release 2 Overview
