You need to have the Globus header and libraries installed in order to build the SAGA preWS GRAM adaptor. Have a look at the installation manual in the docs directory. > 2.

We currently have job service adaptors for * Globus preWS GRAM * OMII GridSAM * Condor * Platform LSF (will be part of SAGA 1.1 - to be released in a couple of days) I don't know if it is possible to build a self contained GRAM package. I guess so - I mean you could just build the GRAM client libraries and, let's say grid-proxy-init. Ask the Globus guys how this works ;-) > 4.

The API wrappers we currently have for our C++ reference implementation are Python (working) and C (not yet working). I don't know about the status of the SAGA Java implementation. Maybe one of the Java guys on this list might be able to help?! > > Best Regards > ye Hope that helps.
