Assuming I use my experience in porting Open Source C libraries to the mainframe and import the MongoDB C driver and compile it successfully, my main issue would then be, as usual, the pesky EBCDIC. When working on the PCRE library, there was already a full EBCDIC implementation, but there is obviously no joy like that in MongoDB.
EBCDIC may not be your only problem! What about endianess? I suggest you study the wire protocol if you are serious *http://docs.mongodb.org/meta-driver/latest/legacy/mongodb-wire-protocol/.*
My question would be, I guess (I am not even sure I express it in the correct terminology), is there a way to tell an LE application (mainly COBOL) to use ASCII or UTF-8 in a native way, or alternatively, to present the ASCII code in EBCDIC.
