Affects Version/s: 4.1.4
4.2.0

Fix Version/s: 4.2.2
Remaining Estimate: 3h
Original Estimate: 3h
Let's try to see if there's an easy way to work around this in 4.2.2.
> [IBM z/OS] runtime locale failure due to lack of native support for stat()
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: STDCXX-265

> Environment: z/OS 1.6, DASD 3390-3 Emulation

> Native MVS has filename limitation of 8 characters and does not support stat
> function.
> examples of where stat function is being used is:
> facet.cpp:103
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> static
> void* __rw_mmap (const char* fname, _RWSTD_SIZE_T *size)
> {
> _RWSTD_ASSERT (0 != fname);
> _RWSTD_ASSERT (0 != size);
> #if !defined (_MSC_VER)
> struct stat sb;
> if (stat (fname, &sb) == -1)
> #else
> struct _stat sb;
> if (_stat (fname, &sb) == -1)
> #endif
> return 0;
> *size = sb.st_size;
> #if !defined(_MSC_VER)
> const int fd = open (fname, O_RDONLY);
> if (-1 == fd)
> return 0;
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> A quick search in the stdlib source found that util/path.cpp, setlocale.cpp,
> and locale_core.cpp uses stat function. The best alternative I found to stat
> on native MVS is to use either open/fopen stream as a parameter to fstat
> function.
> The 8 character max filename limitation impedes roguewave's locale to
> function. This is because some roguewave's locale database file names are
> longer than 8 character long: LC_COLLATE, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC,
> LC_MESSAGES.
