by Hello:
I have both linux and coherent on my hard disk. I installed lpicobol
on coherent and compiled and linked it. lpicobol was made for sysV release 3.
Well, the funny thing is, that when I mounted the coherent partition
I was able to run the cobol program under linux.
For example:
mount -t sysv /dev/hda1 /mnt
followed by
insmod iBCS2
followed by
cd /mnt
hellocob (name of the lpicobol binary)
Well, I'm impressed by iBCS2. You guys are awesome. I have one question
though. Why is it that when I compile c programs under coherent, they
won't run, they produce a segmentation fault. What is the difference
between a compiled C program and a compiled lpicobol program?
Do you suppose coherent isn't ibcs2 format?
Maybe it uses shared libraries? Any ideas? Is there a gcc flag
that I can use to try to make the output what iBCS2 will recognize
as sysV?
