Does any one know which languages are supported on the DecStation 3100? (they must have C, but ADA?, f77?) A related question is "Can you use VMS to compile and link the program that will run on the DS3100"? It would be desirable to use VMS, because we have so many VMS nodes in the company One final question on the 3100, can you use a 3100 to develop code to run on a mips M series machine, ie generate code for BIG_ENDIAN vs LITTLE_ENDIAN? thank in advance for the info sohail -- Sohail Hussain sohail@sanders.com Sanders, A Lockheed Company, decvax!savax!sohail PO BOX 2060, NAM5D-2001, Nashua, NH, 03061-2060 (603) 885 0711

Really? I was under the impression that you may alter the compilation with the -EL and -EB options on the compilers supplied from MIPS.(What dec had eurchased from MIPS for the DS3100) There is, of course, more than just the byte order to consider depending on the aplication.
