What are the best tools/methods in migrating applications (written in Ada, C/C++) running on a DEC 3000 300lx with openVMS 6.2 to a PC running linux or windows NT. What OS presents the least trouble for migration?

Hi Kevin,

migration depends mainly on the accuracy of the source.
We did migration from VMS to Unix (not Linux) and Windows for applications written in C/C++ (no experience with ADA.

Compilers on other than VMS are more exactly, that what makes it not so easy. But I can't remember "best" tools or a big difference between the OSs (unix and windows).

Maybe it is helful to know about the system to migrate to if your applications make use of system libraries...

Klaus
