Problem:
What are the pre requisites when somebody wants to rebuild a new ACUCOBOL-GT Runtime on a UNIX/Linux platform with the integration with C-ISAM (on SOLARIS)?
Resolution:
To relink the runtime, use each platforms’ native ANSI C compiler. For relinking the runtime the GCC compiler is only supported on Linux platforms.
Run a standard make runcbl in the ACUCOBOL-GT lib directory just to check if it’s working before running the integration with C-ISAM or other tools. If it’s not working, the two questions to ask are:
Do you have a C compiler on your platform ? Which C compiler are you using ?
For the special integration with C-ISAM:
a) Ask if the IBM libisam.a file is a 32 or 64 bit version because if it’s a 32 bit version, you have to link it with ACUCOBOL-GT 32 bits and if it’s a 64 bit version, you have to link it with ACUCOBOL-GT 64 bits.
b) Modify the filetbl.c file in the lib directory#define USE_CISAM 0 Ă #define USE_CISAM
c) Modify the Makefile in the lib directory to integrate ACUCOBOL-GT cisam.o file (in ACUCOBOL-GT lib directory) and IBM libisam.a file. An example for the modification of the Makefile for ACUCOBOL-GT Shared 64 bits version on SOLARIS 9/10 is :FSI_SUBS = cisam.o #FSI_SUBS = FSI_LIBS = $(EXTFH_LIB) $(ACU_LIBDIR)/libexpat.a libisam.a #FSI_LIBS = $(EXTFH_LIB) $(ACU_LIBDIR)/libexpat.a
If the customer sends in the libisam.a file put it directly in ACUCOBOL-GT lib directory. For a standard integration, reference the absolute path of the libisam.a file.
