Arch your code runs on?

Arch your code runs on?

[Chris Humphries]

Hello,

	Just out of curiousity what arch, and, if
  possible, what os does your code run on?
	I develop on x86 with debian with grsecurity
  patches. My production machines are the same. Due to
  money restrictions, I have to do with what I have :)

	So what do you develop on and what production
  systems does your code run on? What archs are in
  airplanes, I don't know anything about it. Hopefully
  it isn't Windows :D
	Figured for the way Ada is, designed not to fail,
  I would assume that x86 would not be used much by the
  DoD and airlines, etc.
	Are tandems used?
	Just curious :)

Thanks,
Chris

MIPS, PowerPC, Sparc, x86
vxWorks, Solaris, Windows XP

Both listed in order of my usage..certainly I expect the oder would be 
different most other places.

Not to the article, but to the whole issue:

Develop: Win/NT, Win2000 (soon all to be WinXP)
Target: PowerPC, CsLEOS, ASAAC-compliant OS, VxWorks, bare-board

Targets include past work...

For preference, I develop on Linux (Mandrake 8.2 at the moment).

For money, I have developed (most recent first) on Windows NT,
Solaris, Linux, OSF1.3 (sp?).

Targets: VxWorks/PowerPC, Solaris/Sparc & x86, Linux/x86, Alpha.

Sorry not to answer sooner - busy with a release.

I've seen most of the hardware/OSs I've used in the past, but one
missing item is the 1750.

I've had to program that thing on military AC when the military did
not want to upgrade the chips.  No OS - bareboard computer.

Done a lot with PowerPCs on VME backplanes.  VxWorks, LynxOS (now its
called linux of some form, but I forget their exact title).
