| [orion-dev] Orion & COBOL |
|
Hi all,
Last summer Micro Focus had a team of interns work with us to create an extension for Orion so we could use it as an online COBOL editor. Since we have just gone public with a hosted instance of it I thought I would share it with you all.
We have a couple of flavours, a full hosted Orion instance that supports things like syntax checking, formatting and other features available here: http://orion.microfocus.com (along with some ‘getting started’ steps)
We have also reused the editor in a couple of other contexts such as an online code samples browser running here: http://orion.microfocus.com/cobolPlugin/sampleBrowser.html
These are all demos and using pre 1.0 Orion builds so please expect parts of it to be a bit rough around the edges. That said I hope it shows people just how versatile Orion can be as a platform, more information is available here: http://blog.microfocus.com/news/try-your-hand-at-editing-cobol-in-the-browser/2271/
Thank you to everyone who contributes to making Orion such a great platform.
