[comp.os.vms] DESPERATELY in need of VAX time...can you help?

freeman@COGSCI.BERKELEY.EDU (Sarah Freeman) (05/25/88)

I am in DESPERATE need of borrowing or purchasing a small
amount of time on a VAX running VMS that has VAX C and the
standard DEC C compiler.  I have gotten into a jam because I
thought the GCC port for VAX/VMS was going to be available by
now, and I'm up against a deadline.....

Space required is under one meg, and I anticipate needing less
than twenty logon hours (could be done whenever load average
is lowest).  It's not a very big job--the program compiles down
to less than 150K.  I'm based in the Bay Area, but could work
remotel, so close proximity isn't essential.

What we're doing, BTW, is porting a risk engine for an interactive
Health Risk Appraisal (based on the one developed by the Centers for Disease
Control) that will be put up for free usage on public access videotext
platforms.  I'm in this jam because the development's been done under
UNIX so far, using GCC, with the expectation that we'd do the final
work on the videotext host VAX by shipping
them a copy of VAX/VMS GCC.  only we can't, because it's not available.
(Our host VAX has nothing whatsoever in the way of a C compiler.)
So, what I need to do now is just produce some binaries and ship
them.  fast.

If you can help, I will be deeply grateful!


Please reply directly to me, as I don't subscribe to info-vax.
