Subject: Rep clause problems on VADS
Message-ID: <930329154433_75570.2443_EHA28-1@CompuServe.COM>
List-Id: <comp.lang.ada>

We're using the Verdix (Sun) Ada compiler on a SPARCstation and VADSwork
68030 cross-compiler targeted to a MVME-147/143 network sending 
inter-processor messages via sockets between the SPARC and the 68k netwok.
We send quite a few variant records across the network that we have used
rep clauses in to align the fields properly.  It work fine on message that
do not containt variantparts.When variant parts are used, the 68k seems
to ignore the designated byte layout specified by the rep clauses.  We have
heard that they(the "at" clause) may be ignored on the VADSworks side.
Has anyone experienced this problem.
Thanks in advance.  Larry Ciummo at ESC Cor., Middletown, RI
