Gil, none of the references I can find to ORXVER indicate where it is
available. One post indicates that it was only made available to a few
users. Can you send me a copy, or point me to where it can be found?

how to manage multiple concurrent versions of ooRexx on a single

I'm running various versions of ooRexx in parallel, by simply calling
the appropriate rexx.exe with full path (I've set up doskey macros
"rexx4", "rexx5", "rexx5d" etc. for each). Works for rexx installs and
simple unzipped rexx directories.
There's generally no need to switch rxapi, as it's sufficiently
compatible between 4.2 and the various 5.0 versions. I'm always
installing rxapi from the newest version. Above said is true as long
you're using only 32-bit or only 64-bit Rexx. Switching between 32-
and 64- will involve stopping/uninstalling rxapi and installing the
other rxapi, which isn't that convenient.

Hi Terry,
See my post earlier on the list about using ORXVER to switch
between versions on Windows. 5.0.0 Alpha does not yet have a
windows installer AFAIK. I downloaded the zip file -
https://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/oorexx/5.0.0alpha/oorexx5_win32_r11047_av.zip
- and manually unzipped it and copied all the files into a
...\ooRexx5.0.0 folder. But I see that there is a 5.0.0 Beta
version dated 7/10 in the folder now so that would be a better
target. Once that is done, ORXVER can switch between whatever
your current ooRexx version is and 5.0.0. Let me know if you want
the tool!

Hello,
I've finally got some breathing space to do some testing.
Thought I'd use VBox, but apparently I can't use my
laptop-preload as both host & guest :-( Don't really want to
spend $200-400 for a full retail copy of windows...
So now I've found anemail exchange
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/comp.lang.rexx/E7rKgcMEdpE>between
LesK and Mark Miesfeld on how to manage multiple concurrent
versions of ooRexx on a single machine. However, the method
relies on a windows installer. Looking at the download page, I
see 5.0.0 beta, but only for ubuntu; 5.0.0 alpha directory does
have windows zip. I've downloaded the zip, but don't see any
internal subdirectories, nor installation hints.
Should I install the alpha zip to test existing ooDialog releases
against the new ooRexx? If so, how do I do this in such a way
that I can make use of the multiple concurrent technique. Even
if the alpha build is stale, I'd like to install it even if just
to work out the testing procedures.

Maybe the testing will get me far enough to to start to do some
actual maintnance :-P

Hi Jon,
that is most considerate of you. Yes, I think I have the
necessary authorizations, and otherwise I will ask for them. It
would be good if Terry would adopt the package - officially -
and we could all support him. For me, there no necessity to
release the packages together, but I understand it would be
reassuring for some users to release something that is tested
against 5.00. In the long run, something needs to happen to
ooDialog so it does not make ooRexx look like something from
the eighties/nineties. I hope that the work that Mark Miesfeld
and Oliver Sims did does not go to waste; so we need to focus a
bit here to do the right thing. In my opinion, that would be:
- release separate, but tested and as far as possible, at the
same time
- work on something new ( that at least introduces a newer look
and feel, and adds modern widgets)
- try to merge into something cross-plaform like the linux
distributions pulled off (X windows/GTK stuff)
do we know any numbers on usage of ooRexx, ooRexx+GUI,
ooRexx+Java? Or would that be too depressing?
best regards,
René.

Hi Rene, Terry
Terry was interested in looking after ooDialog, though at that
time he did not know what was involved.
Terry, are you willing to test the decoupled ooDialog against
5.0? If so, is Rene's timescale realistic?
It is quite possible that it will not work in which case I
think we just need to mark it as suitable for 4.x releases
only (Rick has told me that he does not know what Mark did to
uncouple it).
Rene, I think you have the permissions you need, can you let
me know.
I am sending this off the list as it is not my intention to
shame Terry into doing something that he rather tentatively
offered and may have thought better of when he saw what was
needed.
thanks both,
Jon

Hi Jon,
I can branch for release and do the necessary things on
SourceForge, and I am sure most of the other active
programmers can do that also. I think the ooDialog
package, which was separated from the main ooRexx package,
could be released independently, but at the same time. As
it is for one platform only, someone familiar with it
needs to adopt it - you? I cannot judge if it works or
not, or know how to run test cases. I am working on
getting a windows machine (in fact, I have one VM image
running since yesterday that I need to hook up to Jenkins)
to do builds and tests of it.
Do we have an official adoptor?
best regards,
René.

Hi René,
I'm not sure who amongst the committees has the
experience with svn to 'do' a release. Mark did the last
ones and David before that i think. Also i don't think
anyone knows what (if anything) needs to happen with the
independent ooDialog package.

I would still like to assist with the following builds:
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 16.04 AMD64
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 16.04 I386
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 14.04 AMD64
