Those links seem to be for allowing an OOREXX application on a different platform to access a database on z/OS, not for allowing an OOREXX application to run on z/OS.
That said, the package is more general than that, and is worth a look for anybody writing in OOREXX. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Early on in the first article it says "The OS is SLES11 SP4 on IBM System z. SLES11 runs in a z/VM virtual machine." Google tells me that "SLES11" is SUSE Linux. Presumably an ooREXX compiled under SUSE Linux gives one something with no knowledge of, for example, z/OS file systems, let alone any of the environments supported under TSO REXX. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
