HP-UX assembler langauge

Hi. I am trying to determine which assembler instruction set is used by the HP-UX, and, also, if there are any dis-assembler products which work with the system.
Thanks,
Greg

Re: HP-UX assembler langauge

Hi,
The instruction set does not really depend on HP-UX, but on the server. For the HP9000 Series 700 and 800 the instruction set is the PA-RISC 1.1 Instruction Set.

HP Manual : 09740-90039

Hope this helps,

Re: HP-UX assembler langauge

Hi:

For the vast majority of HP-UX boxes, the PA-RISC instruction set is used. The exceptions are those running the new Itanium chip. In a very limited way, you can display the instructions using the adb utility. Man adb for details. At one time, many flavors of UNIX included a 'dis' utility but HP-UX does not.


If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
