Does anyone have any experience with the MAB record syntax
under
ZOOM-Perl?  Or with MAB under any YAZ-based ZOOM
implementation, since
I assume that whatever the problem is, it's down in ZOOM-C's
handling
of the record.

Subject: Z3950 - Problems with MAB-Format
Date: Fri, 29 Feb 2008 11:11:55 +0100

Hi Mike,
I have a big problem with the Perl ZOOM module, wich I
cannot solve and I hope you can help me.
I use Net:Z3950 since 2003 on an older Linux - Enterprise -
Server and it works very fine.
Now I need to install a Z3950-Client on a newer SuseLinux
10.0 - Version, but the Installation of the old API fails.
After perl Makefile.PL I get the message:

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
MakeMaker (v6.30)
Writing Makefile for Net::Z3950::yazwrap
Writing Makefile for Net::Z3950

But trying to run make (test).  I get a bulk of error
messages beginning with:
error: yaz/oid.h: No such file or directory
receive.c:252:44: warning: "/*" within comment
receive.c:253:31: warning: "/*" within comment
receive.c:254:38: warning: "/*" within comment
receive.c:255:46: warning: "/*" within comment
receive.c:256:39: warning: "/*" within comment

So I installed the newer ZOOM module (perl -MCPAN -e
$,1rx(Binstall Net::Z3950$,1ry(B), which works. But now
the records (which I need in German MAB-Format) don't look
good. There are no field delimiters:

If I use the yaz-client from the shell I get the correct
record form with X1E or X1F as delimiters exactly as with
the old Net::Z3950 module

I tried most  options and different charsets, without
success. Can you help me?

Thank you so much
