MinGW (32-bit) GnuCOBOL 3.2 RC2 Binaries for Windows
From Arnold Trembley@21:1/5 to All on Tue Feb 14 02:04:21 2023
Here are the newest GnuCOBOL 3.2 Release Candidate 2 (10Feb2023)
download binaries built with MinGW Gnu Compiler Collection 9.2.0.
GnuCOBOL 3.2 includes PDCursesMod 4.3.5/wincon. It also includes
GCSORT.EXE and support for the COBOL ReportWriter. You can download a
7-Zip binary and rename the file extension from "7z" to "exe", and run
it as a self-installing archive. Then see the STARTHERE.txt file, or
open a cmd.exe window in the install folder, and run "set_env.cmd" to
set the environment variables.
The compressed binaries build with the older 32-bit MinGW toolchain are
about 30 megabytes each, and expand to about 160 Megabytes when installed.
You have a choice of versions using Oracle Berkeley DataBase (BDB) for
ISAM support, or VBISAM 2.1.1 (VBI) for ISAM support, or NODB for a
compile without any Indexed Sequential Access Method. Note that VBISAM
has been upgraded from 2.0.1 to 2.1.1.
