Verify Telesoft 1750 library

Verify Telesoft 1750 library

[cis.ohio-state.edu!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!qt.cs.utexas.edu!cs.utexas.e]

We are using Telesoft's VAX-hosted Ada compiler for MIL-STD-1750A
target language.  We use the compiler to create an object
sublibrary.  When the sublibrary is placed into a
configuration-controlled library, part of the procedure is for
the librarian to rebuild the object library, to verify that it
can be rebuilt exactly from the source code.

Is there a way to verify that the contents are exactly identical,
with the exception of date/time stamps?

The problem we're having is as follows.  A VAX DIFFERENCES
command shows that the rebuilt library is not identical.  It is
not obvious that the differences are only due to date/time
stamps, since the object sublibrary isn't in human-readable form.

One option we were thinking of is that perhaps there is a way to
convert the COMPLETE sublibrary contents (not just a summary
report) to equivalent human-readable form, in order to verify
that the only differences are indeed date/time stamps.  If there
is a way to do this, we have not found it yet in the manual.

Bill.
