Full_Name: Jean-Frederic Clere Version: HEAD OS: BS2000 URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/jfrederic.clere-030530.ebcdic Submission from: (NULL) (217.115.66.150) Find enclosed the patch needed to get slurpd and slapd running on a BS2000. The ITS 2558 and 2559 need to be apply togother with the attached patche.

In your patch, you note: /* The autoconf does not detect correctly EBCDIC */ I rather see autoconf fixed to properly detect EBCDIC. If an OpenLDAP specific fix is needed in the short-term, I rather see this contained to configure.in than acconfig.h. I suggest this issue be discussed on the developers' list. Kurt

Using _OSD_POSIX seems counter to the purpose of autoconf (to "detect" the feature)... is there a better way? Also, I assume HAVE_EBCDIC implies literals are EBCDIC. Maybe we need another macro to say that literals are ASCII but EBCDIC is used elsewhere. Guess I need to review exactly how HAVE_EBCDIC is used...

We already have a test for EBCDIC in libtool, which uses echo and od to determine the result. Can we use the same test in the autoconf script, instead of using the compiler to test? -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp.

Another problem I just noticed; there is a test for <ctype.h> functionality in the check for ANSI C headers that fails on OS/390 because HAVE_EBCDIC is defined, but the compiler is set to use ASCII literals. So configure decides that the ANSI C headers are not available, even though they are. On a slightly related topic, build/shtool uses hardcoded ASCII code values for its "terminal bold sequence" which is not portable. E.g., it uses awk 'BEGIN { printf("%c%c%c%c", 27, 91, 49, 109); }' so these codes are used literally on an EBCDIC host, which is garbage. If it used the actual literals "^[[1m" instead, the same string would work on both ASCII and EBCDIC hosts. This is hardly a tragedy, but I figured it should be mentioned. -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp.
