Re: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper on OS400?

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Jeremy,
    I have not heard of anyone attempting to build an AS/400 version in 
the past,
but it should not be all that difficult to get working.  I would start 
by using one of
the other makefiles.  Maybe the osf1 makefile.  You will have to edit 
the build.xml
file and add a new init-as400 task by copying one of the others.  Then 
add the
new task to the dependency list of the init task.

    Most likely there will need to be one or more #ifdef modifications 
in the source
as well.  If you post the errors you are getting to the list, me or 
another user should
be able to help get you back on track.

    Of course we would all appreciate you contributing your changes for 
use by
other users in the future.

Cheers,
Leif
