Thank you for trying this first port of ZIP for VM/CMS and MVS!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using under VM/CMS:
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. To use the Info-Zip's ZIP under VM/CMS you need:
|
|
|
|
- C/370 ver 2.1 compiler or another compatible compiler supporting
|
|
long names for function/variable names.
|
|
|
|
- that the disk where the compiler is on is accessed
|
|
|
|
- at least the following nucleus extensions (display of NUCXMAP):
|
|
|
|
NAME ENTRY USERWORD ORIGIN BYTES AMODE (Attributes)
|
|
EDCX24 0038B000 00000000 0038B000 00002FD8 ANY SYSTEM
|
|
EDCXV 001D1000 00000000 001D1000 000824C8 31 SYSTEM
|
|
|
|
2. To compile the program under VM/CMS do :
|
|
|
|
- unzip all the files from zip21.zip file. They are stored as
|
|
ASCII format so you have to unzip them first on PC or other
|
|
system that already have UNZIP, and then upload them to the
|
|
mainframe with ASCII to EBCDIC conversion.
|
|
|
|
- execute ZIPVMC to compile and link all the sources.
|
|
|
|
- if everything is ok you will get an ZIP MODULE
|
|
|
|
- the warnings about the duplicated ASCII and EBCDIC symbols
|
|
are OK :-)
|
|
|
|
3. Using ZIP
|
|
|
|
- Just read the ZIP.DOC
|
|
|
|
- A few exceptions concerning VM/CMS
|
|
|
|
3.1. use always filename.filetype.mdisk format to specify
|
|
vm/cms files
|
|
|
|
3.2. if you want to make a portable zip file that is to be unzipped
|
|
on ASCII based systems use the -a option
|
|
|
|
3.3. If you want to zip the input files as binary ebcdic files
|
|
use the -B (capital letter) option
|
|
|
|
3.4. The date/end the time of the input files is set in the zip's
|
|
dir to the current system date/time
|
|
|
|
3.5. Without specifying the "-a" or "-B" option, the ZIP program
|
|
defaults to "native" (EBCDIC) mode and tries to preserve the
|
|
file information (LRECL,BLKSIZE..)
|
|
So when you UNZIP a file zipped with ZIP under VM/MVS it
|
|
restores the file info.
|
|
|
|
There currently some problems with file with RECFM=V*
|
|
I don't save the length of each record yet :-)
|
|
|
|
3.6. No wildcards are supported as input file names:
|
|
|
|
So you CAN'T use things like: zip myzip *.c
|
|
|
|
3.7. If you have CMS PIPELINES installed you can use the MC EXEC
|
|
as a MAKE utility to conditional compile all the sources
|
|
using as input ZIP MAKEFILE.
|
|
|
|
3.8. NO SFS is supported if you are using VM/ESA
|
|
|
|
3.9. You can use DD names for zipfilename for example:
|
|
'filedef input disk myzip zip'
|
|
'zip dd:input file1.txt file2.txt ...'
|
|
|
|
Please report all bugs and problems to :
|
|
Info-ZIP@WKUVX1.WKU.EDU
|
|
|
|
That's all for now.
|
|
|
|
Have fun!
