HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard |
The Question is: Is their a cross-compiler available for compiling same PL/I source code on both OPEN VMS 7.1 system and on an Alpha Machine ? If available please provide me with the requisite product information. The Answer is :
The Wizard is unaware of generally-available cross-compilers for
OpenVMS VAX systems targeting OpenVMS Alpha, or OpenVMS Alpha systems
targeting OpenVMS VAX.
A PL/I compiler is available for OpenVMS Alpha, as well as for OpenVMS
VAX. For information on PL/I, see:
http://www.digital.com/info/SP2530/
In the case of various OpenVMS components written in PL/I, the components
are occasionally translated for use on OpenVMS Alpha using the DECmigrate
package. (The exact mechanism used can be OpenVMS-version-dependent.)
Please contact the customer support center for information on PL/I
availability, and for information on DECmigrate.
