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

[<Con...@t-...>]

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" :-(

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

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.
