Due to a major bug fix, TC version 0.65.5 (32-bit) is now available for download [1]. Lots of changes to the file IO compiler and run-time have been made. For indexed files, version 0.65, uses VB-ISAM version 2. While BDB is no longer used for indexed files, it is still required by the RT for file SORTS. To build and run TC version 0.65.5 requires the following. - VB-ISAM version 2 or later. - Berkeley DB version 1.85 or later. - A curses library (PDcurses on win32). Since VB-ISAM is not usually included in any UN*X distributions, the source can be found on SF [2]. For MinGW users, binaries are available on SF [1]. Just download and install TC (ZIP or setup format), VB-ISAM version 2 [3], BDB version 1.85 [4], and PDcurses version 2.4 [5]. Or download the ALL version ZIP file which contains TC and required libraries. Cheers. 1) SF downloads 2) ISAM - vbisam-2.0.tar.bz2 3) ISAM - vbisam-2.0.mingw.zip 4) BDB - bdb-1.85.mingw.zip 5) PDcurses - pdcurses-2.4.mingw.zip http://sourceforge.net/projects/tiny-cobol/files/ |

I can't duplicate the problem on my development system, but this looks like another Bison problem. I prefer to develop TC using a special version (1.9.3) of Berkeley's YACC, which allows for large grammars, such as COBOL. Until I find a fix for this problem, I would suggest using Berkeley's YACC version 1.9.3 (1). Just configure TC with the 'with-yacc' option. Example: ./configure --with-yacc=yacc193 You can get the source, and a MinGW binary, of this version of Berkeley's YACC (1) on the TC download area at SF. Hope this helps. 1) TC misc - yacc-1.9.3-1.tar.gz http://sourceforge.net/projects/tiny-cobol/files/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/tiny-cobol/files/misc/yacc-1.9.3-1.tar.gz/download |

I think you referring to the NIST COBOL-85 tests, found in the 'test_suite/nist' directory. The NIST test make extensive use of 'DECLARATIVES', which TC does NOT currently support. Consequently I'm not surprised that the tests are full of errors. Have you tried running the examples found in the 'test.code' directories. Just run 'mconfig.sh' first to generate the make files. Cheers. |
