socket code in assembler and COBOL. Both do a HTTP GET to any web page and

I was looking at the CICS sockets interface. On the Linux side I can rig

Rick,
That configure statement needs to have at least "--enable-__cxa_atexit"
added to it, or gcc 3.x won't generate correct code for C++. This was
pointed out to me by the guys in Boeblingen almost a year ago. Pointing it
out in turn to Patrick Volkerding got me a mention in his Changelog. :)
In the copy of SLES8 I just received, the procedure you gave is documented in the

My suggestion for building somewhat more involved packages is first to
