Running OpenVMS VAX
and ULTRIX RISC applications on Alpha DECmigrate translates OpenVMS VAX and
ULTRIX RISC applications into programs that run on Alpha! Regardless of the source
language, you can run most user-mode, non-privileged applications on Alpha
straight away – without disrupting your work environment and without waiting for the
source code to be ported.
Two versions of
DECmigrate are available:
| DECmigrate for OpenVMS Alpha
migrates OpenVMS VAX applications to OpenVMS Alpha. |
See anonymous
ftp instructions
for downloading
DECmigrate for OpenVMS Alpha. |
| DECmigrate for DIGITAL UNIX
migrates ULTRIX RISC applications from MIPS to Compaq's Tru64 UNIX. |

The DECmigrate kits are offered
free of charge for the convenience of our customers. No customer support is available.
You must read and accept the DECmigrate license
before downloading any DECmigrate files. |
DECmigrate is a
binary translator -- it converts a binary executable (that is, compiled) program for
OpenVMS VAX or ULTRIX RISC on MIPS into a binary executable program optimized for OpenVMS
Alpha or Compaq's Tru64 UNIX. To convert the code, DECmigrate works like a compiler: it
uses the binary code for Alpha or MIPS as if it were source code and generates equivalent
native Alpha binaries. The original and newly translated binaries are functionally the
same, but the translated versions run faster, taking advantage
of Alpha's superior performance.
