Axis C/C++ - has anyone build it for openvms?
if anybody has allready build Axis C/C++ for openvms using the dec c/c++
compiler, please let me know - I need it but i'm a novice in openvms.
best regards

Axis for java is working fine on openVMS- I allready tried it in
combination with tomcat ( there is a port from HP ), it is part of the
secure Webserver. But i think it would be fine to have a C/C++ port,
cause our and i think most of the existing software is written in native
code and to extend this - a native code is a little bit simpler ( and i
think faster ) then a nativ/java combination.

1. You need a VMS box, preferably an alpha one, or maybe an alpha copy
of VMS on IA64
2. It is highly regarded by its installed base, and has excellent
clustering features
3. It has a funny filesystem -most definitely not Unix.
I dont know about Axis C++ on VMS, but do know that OpenVMS support is
going in to Ant as we speak. You cannot bootstrap Ant on VMS, but a
nightly build of Ant will recognise it and many things will work. So you
may be able to build Axis Java on OpenVMS. And if not, you should be
able to run it with a build made on a different platform.

One of these days I should get the loan of the Itanium-1 box that I have
been offered and bring up Win2K3, Linux and openVMS on it, then run the
Gump on all three platforms. It would be interesting...I just dont have
the time.

OpenVMS is a Operationsystem for midrange-Computing. may be you know the
pdp-11 or pdp-8 - kernighan & Ritchie started to develop a
programminglanguage on it ( it called "C" ).
now most systems running with a "Alpha"-processor and it will ( is )
ported to itanium.
to the issues: We have systems running (for about 15 years) and develop
for this systems and this systems running very well.
This systems are in my opinion as well as AS400 (sorry IBM).

pardon my ignorance, is openvms a unix clone? what kind of platform does it
run on? What issues would one have to consider to get an openvms environment
running? and is there a enterprise level adoption of openvms and if so how
significant is it?
thanks,
sanjaya.
