Subject: Re[2]: Flex on an AS400
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
              I have no problem at all with being a contact for advice
 | 
						|
          on porting Flex to EBCDIC.  The code was put on an AS400, so
 | 
						|
          filing the message under /MISC/AS400 is more appropriate.
 | 
						|
          The port was an interesting, very educational experience.
 | 
						|
          Thanks again.
 | 
						|

I came in late on this discussion - I don't follow comp.compilers very
 | 
						|
closely these days because my job has shifted somewhat.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I ported (quite some time ago) flex 2.3.6 to an IBM 3090 under MVS, using
 | 
						|
the SAS C compiler. The approach I used was, as Vern suggested, was to
 | 
						|
translate the tables to reflect EBCDIC-based indices. I haven't even
 | 
						|
downloaded flex 2.4 yet, so I don't know what's in the current distribution.
 | 
						|
My patches were in the flex 2.3 distribution for a while in the MISC
 | 
						|
directory. If you want any more info feel free to drop me a line - I still
 | 
						|
have (somewhere) the patches that I created from version 2.3.6.
