Build cobol-check as GraalVM native-image

[0xE282B0]

Hi,
I was testing cobol-check for the gnucobol language track of the exercism.org learning platform.
I'm concerned that installing a Java program would cause support requests to set up a local environment. Therefore I'd suggest building cobol-check as GraalVM native-image.

I already tried it successfully with this branch, is this a contribution you would be interested in?

Hi @0xE282B0

This would be a really fine addition - thank you for sharing this. I'd like to know how to run the exe-file, as I simply get:
Error: No bin\java.exe and no environment variable JAVA_HOME

You're right, I forgot to include the bundle files and it tried to fall back to a Java VM.
Can you try it again?

This got me further. I get an exception when the executable is trying to get some copybooks that should be included as a resource. Messages, which are included in the same way works fine. The copybooks are placed at
src/main/resources/org/openmainframeproject/cobolcheck/copybooks
Is this something you can fix? Let me know if you need further information.
