Re: [Bug-GnuCOBOL] runtime module libcob/fileio.c not compilable with VBISAM

[Ron Norman]

The GnuCOBOL README should say:

  o VBISAM - ISAM file handler (libvbisam) 2.0 or later

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/vbisam/

    VBISAM is distributed under GNU Lesser General Public License.

If you go to that link and Click on  'Files' you can find the vbisam2 version which is needed for GnuCOBOL.

Hi,

 

I downloaded VBISAM, like mentioned in README, from

http://sourceforge.net/projects/vbisam/

 

After a configure –with-vbisam the subsequent make failed with an error msg

that during the link process the symbol isfullclose wasn’t available.

 

After adding in libcob/fileio.c near line 135 the definition for isfullclose:

#ifdef  WITH_VBISAM

#include <vbisam.h>

#define isfullclose(x)  isclose (x)

…

The error msg went and I got a running COBOL compiler the ISAM support.

cobc -version:

With my best regards
