Subject: MC68000 assembler to SPARC assebler cross translator??
Date: 29 Nov 90 20:08:06 GMT	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3538@ssc-bee.ssc-vax.UUCP> (raw)

I have the Verdix ada compiler for a Sun-4 (SPARC). I have a bunch of
ada software which was written on a Sun-3 (MC68000). Some of the modules
have assembler code (using the MACHINE_CODE package). 

When the ada code was developed on the Sun-3's, there was no problem since
the Sun-3 is a MC68000 machine.

The embedded system is still a MC68000 series machine. The embedded
MC68000 code has to stay in the software.

What I am looking for (either to buy or do) is come up with some means
to take the MC68000 assembler code that is embedded in the ada modules, 
and translate it to SPARC assembler code so that our Sun-4 based test-bed
can still run the ada software. 

Is there any way to creat another Machine Code package that would lay
on top of the SPARC machine code package to accept the MC68000 code and
translate it to SPARC machine code?

Or do I have to make a tool that would read in the ada code, strip out
and replace the MC68000 code and insert equivilent SPARC code and generate
a a new routine to compile for the Sun-4 based test-bed. (this would pose
some configuratijon control related problems)

Thanks for your help.
