[Arsperl-users] ARSystem 8.1 files still 32-bit

From: Paul B. <pbl...@gm...> - 2013-02-25 06:33:42

Misi,

I took the liberty of downloading the AR API files from your ARSList post,
looks like it's still 32-bit:

$ file libar.so
libar.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), not
stripped

Can you confirm?  It makes me wonder if BMC even knows we are waiting for
64 bit libraries here.

Regards,
-Paul

I think there is a misunderstanding.  AR API files exist in both 32 and 64 Bit versions. You should see some files with a suffix of _lx64.so if you're on linux. The suffix is, for whatever reason, platform dependent.

But unfortunately no one was able to compile a working ARSPerl using 64 Bit libraries on linux. It compiles fine but when you're trying to connect to an ar-server it throws some RPC errors.

I've opened a ticket at BMC Support, but they closed it with "No Plans to Fix" :-(

Regards Conny

Hello Conny,
Please help me to understand.  I am trying to compile ARSperl 1.93 with ARS 8.x on an Linux RHEL 6.3 server.  Assuming it is possible, can you tell me what to look out for?  Do I require a 32 bit Perl version? Thanks,
ted....

Hi,

This would not be a BMC problem I think.

I have compiled and run many C-API-programs with the 64-bit linux libraries.
They work fine.

Ah, I haven't been following this subject as closely as I had thought,
apologies. I had thought that the reason for no 64-bit ARSPerl was that BMC
had not yet provided the libraries.

So if I understand correctly, the 64 bit libraries do exist and ARSPerl
will compile, but the resulting module does not function correctly.

Is that right?

Yes. I spent a bit of time looking at this.

compiling a short C program against the 64bit API works fine
compiling the same C code as an XS module results in an RPC error 

for some reason libperl  + libar don't like each other

Hi,

What platform did you do this on?

A spontaneous guess would be that the memory allocation is done differently in
perl than in libar. How do we investigate this further?
