OCT
Syntax
OCTOMP
Operation
Use the object code translator to convert compatibility mode (CM) object
code to HP Precision Architecture (PA-RISC) instructions for increased
performance. With OCT, you can create a new file with translated object
code, translate only selected segments of the object code, or add
translated segments to another file.
OCT translates most CM instructions into HP precision architecture
instructions and appends them to the end of the destination file. The
resulting file can be executed on either an MPE-V/E based system or an
MPE/iX-based system. The effort involved in using OCT is less than
recompiling but, as in recompiling, you should retest the application to
verify proper execution.
