We have tried our best to keep the software portable, and on many platforms, you should be able to compile everything with little or no changes. So far, the software has been ported to the following platforms with little or no difficulties.
Unix systems
HP/UX
SunOS/Solaris
DEC Unix
BSDs: FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD
MAC OSX
Linux
IBM AIX
Data General DG/UX (with some CFLAGS tinkering)
SGI/IRIX
DDE Supermax
Non-unix systems
Apple Macintosh (using the Codewarrior programming environment and the GUSI socket libraries)
MS Windows 95/98/NT/2K/XP (Win32)
IBM AS/400
If you move the software to other platforms, we'd be grateful if you'd let us know about it. If you run into difficulties, we will try to help if we can, and if you solve the problems, we would be happy to include your fixes in the next release. So far, we have mostly avoided #ifdefs for individual platforms, and we'd like to keep it that way as far as it makes sense.
We maintain a mailing-list for the purpose of announcing new releases and bug-fixes, as well as general discussion. Subscribe by sending mail to yaz-request@indexdata.dk or fill-in the form here. General questions and problems can be directed at yaz-help@indexdata.dk , or the address given at the top of this document.
