[Oorexx-devel] Windows multi-threaded libraries

Mark, This is probably one for you. Mike speculated that our mystery linein() overlay problem might be caused by not being linked with the multi threading run time library. I thought we were doing this, but could you double check that this is really the case? Rick

Hmmm, it could very well be that we're somehow sharing something with the rexx.exe launcher that we should not be sharing. I thought we had some issues, however, with not using the MT library when building. Rick On Sat, Apr 18, 2009 at 11:39 AM, Mark Miesfeld miesf...@gmail.com wrote: On Sat,

Hello, After following the test efforts up to now with admiration for you guys, I thought I'd join in and get some testing done. My test hardware is a PowerMac G5, with OS X 10.5 and openSuse 11.1, both have ooRexx 3.2 installed. However after an hour or so at this task, I am

Rick, Here is one reference from MSDN library under C Run-Time Libraries: Using the statically linked CRT implies that any state information saved by the C runtime library will be local to that instance of the CRT. For example, if you use strtok, _strtok_l, wcstok, _wcstok_l, _mbstok, _mbstok_l

Klaas, The code is not going to get any more mature than it is at this point. It should be hardward agnostic, so the architecture of your machine should not be a problem. The only reason it has not been made available on the Mac yet is because of a lack of someone to do the actual port. We're

Rick, Thank you for your reaction. Well the install task will be less easy than I hoped for but time/head permitting I'll make the effort and see where I end up. About me, I am an (very) old IBM Systems Programmer/System Engineer and have earned my wings in S/360 systems support.
