Description
The Digital Porting Assistant is a set of integrated software tools
which helps in porting applications to Digital UNIX. The Digital Port‐
ing Assistant identifies source code that might not compile or run on
Digital UNIX. It locates potential problem areas in porting such as
conditional code, include references to files, 32-bit dependencies,
calls to library functions that do not match Alpha/UNIX definitions or
have different semantics on Digital UNIX.
The Digital Porting Assistant will also provide the user with useful
tips on porting issues. The information in these tips covers several
areas such as endianism, data alignment, 32-bit dependencies and cor‐
recting pointer-to-int assignments.
