Looking to build and install husky on os/2 cant seem to accomplish it, any tips?

fatal error: cannot execute 'emxomfld.exe'

I'm not sure what is needed to compile on OS/2.

You can grab pre built binaries for all supported platforms and docs & source from..

You need a working gcc compiler. :) Then just follow the instructions how to compile.

I'm still using the good old GCC 3.3.5.

It is possible I am sure but I am not sure of the tool chain needed. Tommi could get you moving in the right direction.

There are gcc files released periodically in the GFD file areas (all sorts of OS/2 files) that might come in handy but I don't know how to build anything on OS/2. If you are not already connected to that FDN we could find a way to solve that.. :)

I tried those binaries, and when I run hpt pack, I get killed by SIGSEGV error message

this is on hpt/os-emx 1.9.0-cur 2020-11-09

any ideas?

Thanks

Do you mean http://download.huskyproject.org/os2/husky-all-1.9-os2-libc066-20201211.zip

Husky 1.9-current OS/2-libc066 binaries only
GIT snapshot date 11 Dec 2020
Compiled with PERL=0, USE_HPTZIP=0

Required libraries:
LIBC v0.6.6
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0.6.6-csd6.zip

any ideas?

It can be anything. For example, a non-existing path is specified in the config.


Have a nice night.

Do you have that exe on your system?

As far as i remember there was some kind of path and compilier specific definitions in the huskymak.cfg. I would grep the sources for emxomfld.

How did you start with the husky compilation? Where is your first entry point? And i don't know if there are differences between the OS/2 versions (Warp, ECS 1+2, etc.).

tried using the libs, which gave me klibc errors, cant seem to fix..everything seems to run fine unless I invoke the pack option

Is regina hardcoded to look in a certain place for its config files?
it saved the config in the current folder, but when I run regina again, the configuration does not get loaded

Oh sorry, my mistake. I didn't noticed the change of the topic.
My question was intended for Rick. It does not match to your problem.

tried using the libs, which gave me klibc errors, cant seem to fix..everything seems to run fine unless I invoke the pack option

I'm afraid that we don't have many OS/2 users here. Did you try an OS2 echoarea to adress the OS2 community directly?

Ouch. For OS/2 the hpt downgrade step should be squish/2. I did a migration from squish to hpt and it was easy from my point of view.

I don't remember anymore, it seems yes - it is looking for a config in the same directory where the executable file is launched from. It's been 11 years since I was forced to stop using OS/2. :(

it saved the config in the current folder, but when I run regina
again, the configuration does not get loaded

It's strange. Did you cd d:\fido\regina (or where it is)?

Quite reasonable in my opinion. ;)

You can always subscribe to RU.OS2. * (For example on 2:460/58 node). Most of the subscribers there speak good English, it is not prohibited there and you can easily get a qualified answer.

As I recently learned, prebuild binaries for OS/2 do not have Pearl support, otherwise they are quite workable.
