About jar's CPU, is there any zAAP eligibility when running jar? There's also gzip and bzip2. bzip2 is also supported by IBM as part of the IBM Ported Tools (no charge). Here's some more information:
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/unix/ported/suptlk/index.html I also found this thread concerning Info-Zip Zip for z/OS: http://www.info-zip.org/board/board.pl?m-1223026045/ Note that prior to Zip 3.0 there was no support for >2GB files on any platform. It was less than a year ago that 3.0 came out, so if you have an old version then you have that limitation. You can find the source code (including z/OS source code) to Info-Zip Zip 3.0 here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=118012 - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan / Asia-Pacific E-Mail: timothy.sipp...@us.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
