Now, we want to migrate to Gnat Ada95 first and then to Gnat Ada on Tru64 Unix (both alpha hardware and little endian). We are using an RPC mechanism, which tranfers binary data, represented by complex Ada variant records. Is there a chance, that we can continue doing this between OpenVMS AXP and Tru64 AXP? Or do we have to introduce data mashalling in any case. best regards Jakob
