I have a Windows DLL that open parses Assembler SYSADATA using fopen and fread
those api are there on XL. Rather than re-write the code (a I could use the
functionality on the mainframe) I decided to upload it and compile it)
The first program or dll function is really simple all it does is open the
file. Yet I am getting all sorts of errors from XL, and this is from standard
headers such as builtin which I didn't even include
Here is my code.
#ifdef __MVS__
#pragma options(RENT)
#pragma export(openfile)
#else
#pragma warning(disable : 4700 )

#include "fcntl.h"
#include "sys\stat.h"
#endif
#include "threadx.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#ifdef __MVS__
#pragma CSECT(OPENFILE)
#endif
#ifdef __MSVC__

extern DWORD dwTlsIndex;
extern "C"
{

}
#endif
bool openfile(char* filename)
{
LPVOID lpvData;
LPDWORD lpFileSizeHigh;
procstor* procpointer;
DWORD filesize;
/* typedef void *(DLL_FN)(char *); */
// DWORD dwTlsIndex;
lpvData = TlsGetValue(dwTlsIndex);
procpointer = (procstor *)lpvData;
procpointer->adataptr = fopen(filename, (const char *)"rb+");
if (procpointer->adataptr == NULL)
return FALSE;
#ifdef _MSVC_
filesize = GetFileSize(procpointer->adataptr, lpFileSizeHigh);
#endif
return TRUE;
}
Here is my compile JCL

The errors are getting seem to be from standard headers.
"//'JOER.CPP.SOURCE(OPENFILE)'", line 184.4: CCN5063 (S) The text "extern" is un

This points to first lines in stddef.h I tried compiling it a C taking CXX out
but still get the errors.

I wouldn't use the full fat Visual Studio. Far better off using VS Code and the
Windows port of clang. You will get IntelliSense and all the usual stuff that's
useful + the clangd language server which will lint your code as you type.
I use the Windows Subsystem for Linux for all of my work bar Eclipse Plugins
which I try and avoid anyway. All C/C++, Java, Python development is done using
a Jetbrain's IDE connected to WSL using Linux binaries. IMO, using Windows to
develop code to run on *nix systems isn't a very good idea now that WSL.
PowerShell might be awesome for Windows weenies but I prefer the predictability
of a UNIX shell like zsh or the venerable bash on old systems. It's remarkable
how similar zCX containers are to WSL :)
