[comp.sys.dec] ATT C++ port for DS3100 and Encore Multimax

fay@wpi.WPI.EDU (Peter R Fay) (01/11/91)

I am looking for anyone who has ported AT&T C++ R2.1 to either a DEC
3100 or the Encore Multimax (preferrably Umax 4.3).

I have the source code tape, but no machine-dependent source files for
these machines.  Has anyone done either of these two ports or know of
anyone who has?

Much thanks.

I just finished porting AT&T/C++ vers. 2.1 to a DECStation 3100 running
Ultrix 3.1d.  

I first brought C++ up on a sparcstation running SunOS 4.1, then followed
the steps to porting the translator to another architecture.  To test
the port, I compiled InterViews vers. 2.6 with only a minor problem with
how lseek() was defined.  This turned out to be within InterViews and not
with the translator.

If you're real careful, and make sure you use /bin/sh5 and not /bin/sh in
Ultrix, it's not that hard to do.
