FreeWare Menu Utility on Alpha
Is anyone running Joe Meadows's MENU utility from the Freeware CD #2 on an Alpha System? If so, what did you have to do to compile the source on an Alpha server?
I am needing to set up a multi-level menuing system that is database driven based on user name and membership in account groups. I understand that this application is set up to run from flat files, but shouldn't take to much to read a local Rdb database.
Any help would be appreciated.

The same code is (also) on Freeware V8.

Re: FreeWare Menu Utility on Alpha
I agree with you 100%. The C code is going to take a great deal of work with the current compilers. That is why I was checking to see if someone had already done the work.

Re: FreeWare Menu Utility on Alpha
It's obviously your decision to implement a new application using this particular design. You'll be among the few folks that are pursuing this particular challenge.
Most folks here will look to use libwww or one of the other available user interface frameworks, and are looking to migrate away from serial connections and away from (save for comparatively advanced tasks) character cell UIs. Which is almost certainly why you've also not located much in the way of free menu tools for OpenVMS, too.
FWIW, you'll probably be able to mask a number of the errors here using /STANDARD=VAXC on your C builds. Standard warning: that masks the errors, and doesn't fix the errors.

There was also once a MENU-MASTER utility in the OpenVMS SIG Tapes, which was also once available at Joseph (Sepp) Huber's website here...

Unfortunately, I can no longer find any links to this utility. But, one could search through the DECUS Library sites here...

Thanks for the reply. The links from Menu Master are stale.
