[Oorexx-devel] Announcing new beta version BSF4ooRexx 4.50
BSF4ooRexx (https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/) is an external ooRexx function package that allows Rexx programmers to use all of Java. Java will be camouflaged as ooRexx such that Java classes and Java objects appear to be ooRexx classes and ooRexx objects. As the Java runtime environment (JRE) includes all functionality a modern system needs (from GUI, via SSL to XML processing), ooRexx programmers can benefit immediately without needing any other external Rexx function package anymore. Best, as Java is cross-platform, the ooRexx programs developed e.g. on Windows will execute unchanged on Linux or MacOSX and vice versa! --- New features, changes: * installation: a lot of effort went into updating the installers for Windows, now using elevation on Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.x in 32- and 64-bit (still using runas on Windows XP). In addition the MacOSX installer got updated and should now accept non-Apple Java installations. * the two BSF4ooRexx jars got folded into a single jar (Java archive, a zip file) in order to ease deployment (e.g. for third parties). * the Java method resolution got changed in BSF4ooRexx, causing a speed improvement in lookup by at least 5% (was fast enough already), * BSFAttachToTID() and BSFDetach() got deprecated (not needed anymore): these two external Rexx functions were needed to allow Rexx threads to attach to the correct Java peer. The logic for attaching to Java has changed, such that attaching and detaching is carried out automagically. Also, the new logic causes a slight speed improvement (was fast enough already). o In order to allow Rexx programs employing these two external Rexx functions to continue to execute, these two functions still exist and merely return .true when invoked. o For those who are interested more in this subject: it is possible, thanks to the versatility of ooRexx, to create multiple Rexx interpreter instances from Java, either on the same or on multiple Java threads. ooRexx programs executing in the different Rexx interpreter instances could also employ ooRexx multithreading, such that a real vivid ;) system realizes, in which different Java threads and Rexx threads may interact with each other. Prior to this release the ooRexx programmer had to explicitly denote the thread which a new Rexx thread needs to attach to, which is a little bit cumbersome. * All changes can be studied in the text files changesBSF4ooRexx.txt and changesOOo.txt. This beta package can be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/files/beta/20140526/, the zip-archive contains the installer for Windows and Linux (after unzipping go to bsf4oorexx/install/windows or bsf4oorexx/install/linux and run the install scripts), the MacOSX versions are available in 32- and 64-bit and include the release version of ooRexx 4.2.0. NetRexx/Java-programmers: please note, there are two JavaDoc archives that document the interfaces between NetRexx/Java and ooRexx, including the abilities for NetRexx/Java to interact with and send ooRexx messages to Rexx objects! Please participate in this beta and report any problems that you might encounter at https://sourceforge.net/p/bsf4oorexx/bugs/?source=navbar! For help, discussions, please use the BSF4ooRexx mailing lists (either the developer or the support list, links to these mailing lists can be found at https://sourceforge.net/p/bsf4oorexx/mailman/?source=navbar). ---rony -- -- __ Prof. Dr. Rony G.

[Oorexx-devel] CMake build and NSIS installer.
I am currently able to get a simple NSIS installer built using the standard stuff. This is going to need a bit more work to finish, but the existing installer will need a bit of work also to be restructured to handle out-of-source builds and the different file locations associated with a CMake build. While fixing up the existing NSIS installer is doable, I think I'm really in favor of switching over to the CMake-generated installer. It makes a lot of sense having the build process drive the content of the installed files. The installer is also flexible enough to allow us to do things like spinning a build that will install the .pdb files for problem determination situations. Anyway, let me give a brain dump of what I've found so far. I think this is at a point where I need to have Mark take a look at things to help decide which path to take to move this forward. To create the installer, do the following steps: 1) Make a directory somewhere for the install build and switch to that directory. 2) Configure the build using: cmake -G NMake Makefiles -DBUILD_NSIS=1 directory of the source tree 3) Do a build by issuing nmake 4) Generate the installer using cpack After you have done these 3 steps, you will only need to do the nmake and cpack steps to build after that. CPack generates an NSIS installer by using a couple of template files and filling in information from CMake variables. The default template files are part of the cmake build and are located in the subdirectory share\cmake-2.8\Modules. There is an installer template named NSIS.template.in and an options file named NSIS.InstallOptions.ini.in. The CPack generating performs variable substitutions in these templates and then generates the installer .exe from the configured files. The generated files end up in the _CPack_Packages\win64\NSIS subdirectory of your build. Examining the template and the generated project.nsi file is a useful exercise. A lot of the NSIS install can be configured just by setting the appropriate CPACK_* variables in the CMakeLists.txt file, but not everything we do in our existing installer can be handled that way. For the rest of the stuff, we need to create a custom template. A custom template is just a different version of the NSIS.template.in and NSIS.InstallOptions.ini.in that can contain any additional stuff we want. The location of this file is specified using the CPACK_MODULE_PATH variable, so we can place this anywhere we want (e.g., in the same directory we use for the install stuff now). This is the point where I need a lot of input from Mark. There are two obvious paths to creating this template: 1) Start with the existing template and add in the extra stuff we need or 2) Start with our existing .nsi file and convert this into a template file. I suspect 1) might be the easier path, but I'm not familiar enough with how the NSIS scripts work to figure out which parts need to be moved over to the template file (and how).

Re: [Oorexx-devel] CMake build and NSIS installer.
A couple of additional points on the installer, but these issues can be solved once we have the main installer working. Right now, I only have two components defined in CMakeLists.txt, Core and DevLib. The Samples component is easy, really just a matter of adding a bunch of install commands, but the docs present a bit more of a problem. The install() commands expect to find the targeted files, so we'll need to have some doc files available. One approach would be to have a version of the checked in binaries in the source tree (or at least placeholder dummy files with the same names). Another possible approach would be to download the docs from a URL on demand. We might be able to have a directory on the build machine that contains the latest doc builds and use that, but there could be some complications with the release process to make sure the correct versions are getting picked up. Another approach I think will work is to configure the build is a -D option on the initial cmake command to specify the location of the doc files. Done that way, we can probably make the inclusion of the docs component conditional on the variable being set. This might be handy for interim development work and also allows good control on the release process.

Re: [Oorexx-devel] oorexx.org download page out of date.
FYI, RAID card died in the server hosting RICE. I had to go back to an old version of the server. I currently have the RAID array mounted in a donor system and am getting the data off. Once I get the data off, I will try to restore the system back to where it was. -- Brandon Cherry On 5/27/2014 1:07 PM, Rick McGuire wrote: The Downloads page on oorexx.org http://oorexx.org has an incorrect link to the build machine, so I thought I'd update the page. However, the page that is checked in to svn has the correct link, so somehow the version that is currently being served up is out of date.
