>[UNCOL alert ... fixed operating systems and data formats ...]
At the risk of repeating the well-known: the problem is deeper than
operating systems and data formats. If you produce an UNCOL for a
single operating system but for M languages and N target architectures
you'll still have "the UNCOL problem."
;-D on ( Crying Java? ) Pardo
[I would go so far as to claim that target architectures with the same
data formats count as a single target, e.g., 68K and Power PC, but the
M languages are plenty to send any UNCOL project into heat death.
Typical problem: in function arguments, C pointers and Fortran arrays
might seem to have similar semantics, but they don't. -John]
