Given the effort that goes into making the package totally 31-bit clean for z/OS, I was surprised by this, and read the website, and have now updated it to try to make it clearer that z/OS is the primary target, and that MVS 3.8 (actually, I use MVS/380 for 31-bit) is (sort of) merely a means to that end. >o Will it compile the samples in OA31731? Don't know. Do the samples conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990? If so, yes. The samples aren't available for anonymous download. >o Is it Unix System Services-friendly? Not the one I produce. It's MVS, not USS. There is an LE/370 target though if you rebuild from source. I don't know much about that though - Dave Pitts was the one who used the LE target. BFN. Paul. P.S. Sorry to hear about your economy drive, but that's the exact void that GCCMVS is designed to fill (ditto for CMS or VSE sites that struggle to cost-justify a compiler). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
