COBOL: cobc - novaez/syntastic GitHub Wiki

For details about cobc see OpenCOBOL.

You can set the buffer local variable b:syntastic_cobol_cflags. If this variable is set for the current buffer no search for additional libraries is done. I.e. set the variable like this:

let b:syntastic_cobol_cflags = '-I/usr/include/libsoup-2.4'

In order to add some custom include directories that should be added to the cobc command line you can add those to the global variable g:syntastic_cobol_include_dirs. This list can be used like this:

let g:syntastic_cobol_include_dirs = [ 'includes', 'headers' ]

Moreover it is possible to add additional compiler options to the syntax checking execution via the variable g:syntastic_cobol_compiler_options:

let g:syntastic_cobol_compiler_options = '-std=cobol2002'

Additionally the setting g:syntastic_cobol_config_file allows you to define a file that contains additional compiler arguments like include directories or CFLAGS. The file is expected to contain one option per line. If none is given the filename defaults to .syntastic_cobol_config:

let g:syntastic_cobol_config_file = '.config'

Using the global variable g:syntastic_cobol_remove_include_errors you can specify whether errors of files included via the g:syntastic_cobol_include_dirs setting are removed from the result set:

let g:syntastic_cobol_remove_include_errors = 1

Use the variable g:syntastic_cobol_errorformat to override the default error format:

let g:syntastic_cobol_errorformat = '%f:%l: %trror: %m'

Set your compiler executable with e.g. (defaults to cobc)

let g:syntastic_cobol_compiler = 'cobc'

This checker doesn't call the makeprgBuild() function, and thus it ignores the usual g:syntastic_cobol_cobc_<option> variables. The only exception is g:syntastic_cobol_cobc_exec, which can still be used to override the checker's executable.
