Re: building BREXX
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi Adrian,I checked in the current source, will add some of the VM modules also. I started with the .corig sources and checked them in as.c, and then checked in the current .c modules, so we can track them with git diff. As a result, some of the files are empty now (and are not part of the build procedure - hmm). Btw, I scripted the downloads with s3270 - something else to consider for automation of building and testing. Very probably we will need some extra containers, with the 1.2 sixpack for example, and the Dr. Latz fix, before we can bring it all together. I hope we will find and fix some of the more infuriating aspects of BREXX on VM/370, which is the absolute flakeyness in loading files and getting their names wrong, especially with 8 character filenames; and the fact that sometimes one IPL is not enough to get it in working state again. I hope that the improvements in the gcc library also will help in getting more stability. I¡¯ll leave the build process automation and release process to you then, and will focus on debugging first. I just realized that I always used Rexx to start debug sessions and set breakpoints - with MVS, that is, hmm again. I also started adding issues to work on, mostly for myself and to document potential progress. best regards, ¸é±ð²Ô¨¦.
