<p><font size="+1">Hi,</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">I'd like to port Erlang/OTP on AIX.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">After browsing several files and ReadMe files in the source and on Erlang web-site, it seems to me that AIX is not yet handled by Erlang.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">I've already started to look at the code. And it appears that there is some assembler code for PowerPC, probably for Linux.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">However, browsing the code, I see that it talks of ELF (AIX is XCOFF) and of AIX. I'm quite lost.<br>
Moreover, I've read that only 32bit Linux/PowerPC is handled. No 64bits. Correct ?<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">I'd like to find information about:<br>
- which parts must be modified/extended for handling AIX (XCOFF) ?<br>
- which parts must be </font><font size="+1"><font size="+1">modified/extended</font> for handling 64bit in addition to PowerPC 32bit ?</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">Any other information about where I have to look at for porting Erlang (v 19.2 now) on AIX would be very useful for me.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">Thanks</font></p>
