Getting exception on AIX (IBM). SSL looking for binaries for AIX(IBM) platform.

[AnujRajSingh]

I am trying to use booringSSL on AIX(IBM) platform using java
IBM J9 VM (build 2.9, JRE 1.8.0 AIX ppc64-64-Bit Compressed References 20180626_390413 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled)
and
Maven dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.netty</groupId>
    <artifactId>netty-tcnative-boringssl-static</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.17.Final</version>
  </dependency>

I am getting Exception

Do I need to build the binaries for AIX?

Thanks

Yes... We do not ship AIX support

Hi Anuj
I am facing the same issue, what did you ultimately do to address this, I need to support HP-UX as well.
Any pointers will be helpful.

@AnujRajSingh I am getting similar issue (grpc/grpc-java#5369 and netty/netty#8871). Could you tell how did you do that for AIX?

[AnujRajSingh]

You Need to build binaries on the AIX (Though this one for Linux, you need corresponding packages for AIX https://netty.io/wiki/forked-tomcat-native.html#wiki-h3-13) Thanks Anuj

[ankitshubham97]

@AnujRajSingh Did you also make any change in the netty-tcnative code? Or its pom.xml?

[ankitshubham97]

@AnujRajSingh And which JDK did you use? If I am correct, IBM does not provide its own JDK.

[vikashbhattar]

Can someone provide the steps to compile binaries on AIX?

[slandelle]

@vikashbhattar AIX is sold by IBM and very few people have access to it. IMHO, instead of reaching out to an open source community, you should probably ask your IBM support.
