JAM Stapl player on 64 bit platform?

[wzab]

Hi,

A few years ago I've prepared the customized version of JAM STAPL
Player, well suited for operation in VME based environment with
SCANSTA111 bridge (open sourced and published e.g. at
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.sources/browse_thread/thread/8761df1865c088f4/ce9a5358866aa4fa
).

It worked correctly for a few years, but now we are forced to switch
to 64-bit platform.
Unfortunately the original JAM STAPL player code seems to be
inherently 32-bit.

I'd like to know if anybody has succesfully ported the sources of JAM
STAPL Player to 64-bit platform?
Is there any other open source solution which could be easily adapted
to efficiently drive the JTAG chain via VME interface?

TIA,

I have found an SVF based solution:

but again there is no info if it is 64-bit safe...

I've successfully tested libsxvf on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.
I had to write my own "backends" matching my programming hardware
(one was based on CAEN VME interface, and another one on FTDI USB
bridge
connected to our own JTAG "accelerator"). The only problem was to
write those backends in platform independent form.

Oh, well, additional problem was with Altera Quartus generated SVF
file.
The "FREQUENCY 10000000.00 HZ;" causes the SVF syntax error message,
so it
must be commented out before the SVF file is used by the libxsvf.
