V1.0 has a runtime dependency on the SAS IOM drivers (using COM objects). This means that powerSAS will only run on MS Windows.

This request is to enhance powerSAS run on Powershell Core (pwsh) and remove the dependency on MS Windows.

The SASPy project contains jar files required to connect to SAS using Java. These could be reused.

This enhancement would not break current functionality, so powerSAS would continue to run on PS 5.1 MS Windows using the IOM COM objects.

A key use-case for this feature is to use powerSAS on a containerised environment e.g. gitpod
