Hello,

tested Zlib 1.2.3.4 on OpenVMS 7.3-2 Alpha and 8.3-1 Itanium. The new
version compiles without problems. Only make_vms.com needs some
additonal logic to add support for large files.

I also gave minizip a whirl. The only change is in miniunz.c, where an
addtional include is needed to get the mkdir prototype. The change
also works on other unix variants.

*** miniunz.c   2009-12-27 23:55:04.000000000 -0600
--- miniunz.c.new       2009-12-28 17:40:25.000000000 -0600

  #ifdef unix
  # include <unistd.h>
  # include <utime.h>
+ # include <sys/stat.h>
  #else
  # include <direct.h>
  # include <io.h>

In addition I've done a very simple build script for minizip for
OpenVMS. Both build scripts are available on

Greetings, Martin
