1607.0. "DECmcc-VMS/DECmcc-Ultrix" by PADIS::PERIE () Mon Oct 07 1991 08:40

    
    Very generally , are there difference between DECmcc for VMS and DECmcc
    for Ultrix in the Software organization ?
    
    Thanks.
                          Isabelle.

	Isabelle, What is meant by "in the Software organization"? Are you refering to management (people) or the product (modules)?
1607.2		TOOK::SWIST	Jim Swist LKG2-2/T2 DTN 226-7102	`Mon Oct 07 1991 09:45`	5
	Quite general answer. No.
1607.3	I mean...	PADIS::PERIE		`Mon Oct 07 1991 14:34`	5
	What I mean by software organization is for example how is the thread mecanism implemented , process activated per each DECmcc module... Isabelle.

	Threads are the same - all in one process. Management modules are different. All in one process in VMS. Once process per MM in Ultrix.
1607.5	ultrix process model	TOOK::CALLANDER	MCC = My Constant Companion	`Wed Oct 23 1991 19:17`	5
	Jim, Isn't that one process per MM per user. So if one user logs into the same account 5 times and runs mcc, there will never be more than one process per MM that they are using. But if 5 users log into 5 different account, each of them will have their own set of MCC MM processes.
1607.6	and for developpers , and users?	PADIS::PERIE		`Wed Nov 20 1991 11:05`	6
	Thanks a lot for your answers. What about (differences Ultrix,VMS) from the developper point of view ? And from the user point of view? Thanks. Isabelle.
1607.7	new dev toolkit documentation includes ultrix info	TOOK::CALLANDER	MCC = My Constant Companion	`Wed Jan 08 1992 10:12`	12
	The new developers toolkit documentation has been completely reworked so as to explain both environments, and to describe development in terms of platform independence. The level of OS knowledge needed by a developer will be dependent upon the type of function to be provided. As much as possible we have put kernel routines around system services so as to make them "generic" from the developers point of view. The close you stick to MCC routines and standard C calls the more portable your code.
