As for %OS2_SHELL%, I don't understand why it doesn't have the desired effect when placed in build_perl.cmd. I'll include this variable in ux2_env, but I'd like to know why it is currently failing. The comment about resolv shouldn't be needed as RESOLV (or RESOLV2) is copied to the test %ETC% now so WGET should work correctly. There is a patch for the rx_cmprt.t test, but I haven't incorporated it yet. To run the tests individually, you don't need to enter a shell.

Sure. Ideally by someone familiar with the application. This is what I propose as build_openssl.cmd:- rm include/openssl/* call os2\os2-emx make -f os2-emx-dll.mak cp -p openssl.exe %uxrt%\usr\bin cp -p out_dll\*.dll %uxrt%\usr\lib cp -p out_dll\*.a %uxrt%\usr\lib cp -p -r outinc\openssl %uxrt%\usr\include This ought to install various files into their correct locations...

I'll take a look this weekend. I'd like to facilitate moving to the Posix/2 environment if I can. _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at powerusersbbs.net http://powerusersbbs.net/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs **= Email 22 ==========================** Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 22:58:25 +0100 (CET) From: "Adrian Gschwend" Subject: Gnu Compiler Suite for OS/2 bugtracker Hi all, GCC gets more and more important on OS/2, mainly because it's the only up to date compiler available. Because of this Odin and other projects start to use it so it's about time for a coordinated effort for the port. Andy and Stauff are working on GCC 3.2.1 for OS/2 and for support we now have a bugtracking system at netlabg.org: http://xtracker.netlabs.org/index.php?project=15&gmtofs=-60 You are welcome to keep an eye on this xtracker and add own bugs if you run into a real OS/2 problem. Overview page: http://xtracker.netlabs.org/ Note that several projects are just visible if you are a registerd user. cu Adrian -- Adrian Gschwend at netlabs.org ktk [a t] netlabs.org ------- Free Software for OS/2 and eCS http://www.netlabs.org _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at powerusersbbs.net http://powerusersbbs.net/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs
