This build has been made on 2007/08/07 from this 2007/08/06 0.33 snapshot.
This build (and all components) is made using HP aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.05 [Jul 25 2005] compiler. You can download OpenCOBOL HPUX IA-64 64-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
This build has been made on 2007/08/07 from this 2007/08/06 0.33 snapshot.
The root of the directory tree for this version is not "/usr/local/" but "/usr/local/64/" to separate 64-bit versions from 32-bit.
This build (and all components) is made using HP C/HP-UX Version HP92453-01 B.11.11.16 compiler. You can download OpenCOBOL HPUX PA-RISC 64-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
This is the same build but done in 32-bit mode. The root of the directory tree for this version is "/usr/local/". You can download OpenCOBOL HPUX PA-RISC 32-bit binaries, but you will need GMP 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20 which you can download from Porting And Archive Centre for HP-UX

Due to GCC severe problem in code generation design, OpenCOBOL cannot work with GCC on Power CPU. GCC will simply unable to compile any reasonably large program. This version requires IBM C compiler (xlc). OC was compiled using IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8.0 for AIX but it is possible that programs generated by OC will be okay with prior versions. Anyway, IBM C for AIX (not C++) is not that expensive.
You can download OpenCOBOL AIX 5.3 64-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
For other pre-built packages you might want to visit AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications

This build (and all components) has been made using IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8.0 for AIX compiler. GMP library is relying on minimum 604-e CPU, but if you have better I would suggest you to build GMP from sources for your CPU (POWERx is much more advanced so it worth to do for production systems if you are using a lot of math). You can download OpenCOBOL AIX 5.1 32-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
This build has been made on 2007/08/07 from this 2007/08/06 0.33 snapshot.
This build (and all components) has been made using Sun C 5.9 SunOS_sparc 2007/05/03 compiler. The 64-bit version is in /usr/local/bin/sparcv9 and uses /usr/local/include/sparcv9 for gmp.h and libraries are in /usr/local/lib/sparcv9. You can download OpenCOBOL Solaris 10 binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
This build has been made on 2007/08/08 from this 2007/08/06 0.33 snapshot.
This build is using Microsoft C version 8 (from VS2005) so better you will have it, but you might be able to use version of C compiler from VS2003. You can download OpenCOBOL Windows 64-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
You can get Windows x86/x64 VS2005 project files, IA64 command files for SDK, projects and command files to build GMP and BerkeleyDB as well as OC and Cobol85 test suite for windows here. You will need to move build_windows subdirectory into your open-cobol-0.33 directory.

This build is using Microsoft C Version 14.00.50727.42 for Itanium (from Platform SDK) so you will need it. You can download OpenCOBOL Windows IA64 64-bit binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
You can get Windows x86/x64 VS2005 project files, IA64 command files for SDK, projects and command files to build GMP and BerkeleyDB as well as OC and Cobol85 test suite for windows here. You will need to move build_windows subdirectory into your open-cobol-0.33 directory.

This build is using Microsoft C version 8 (from VS2005) so better you will have it, but you might be able to use older version of C compiler as well. You can download OpenCOBOL Win32 binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20.
You can get Windows x86/x64 VS2005 project files, IA64 command files for SDK, projects and command files to build GMP and BerkeleyDB as well as OC and Cobol85 test suite for windows here. You will need to move build_windows subdirectory into your open-cobol-0.33 directory.
This build has been made on 2007/08/15 from this 2007/08/06 0.33 snapshot. but with a 2 small fixes: cobc patch and libcob patch. Newer OC sources already have those fixes.
Of course, it does not make any serious sense to use OC on a platform where COBOL is well supported and this build has been primarely done to proof that OC can work in EBCDIC environment. It might make sense to use OC for the people who has working 64-bit C environment because IBM still don't have 64-bit COBOL on z/OS. You can download OpenCOBOL z/OS binaries, which include GMP version 4.2.1 and Berkeley DB 4.4.20. You also can download OC tests modified for z/OS. Some files from here can help to build GMP and BDB (sorry, it's in ASCII).
