A typical installation of the NetCOBOL development package installs the necessary NetCOBOL Studio components.
In Eclipse, the upward compatibility of a workspace is guaranteed. When a workspace created in NetCOBOL Studio based on Eclipse 3.2 is opened in NetCOBOL Studio based on Eclipse 4.3, it is converted automatically.
However, it is not backwards compatible. Workspaces that have been converted to Net COBOL Studio based on Eclipse 4.3 cannot be opened by NetCOBOL Studio based on Eclipse 3.2.
When two or more developers and development machines share one workspace for development work, be sure both machines are using the latest version of NetCOBOL Studio.
