Excuse me, turkey, that "know-nothing poster" is a friend of mine.  She knows
a great deal; she simply has certain biases.

You must have some magical technique that you use to distinguish the
biased crap that comes out her from the "great deal" of knowledge that
she has never demonstrated on this board.

She's spitting because of PL/I?  I doubt she knows anything about PL/I.
Which would be all too typical of her misinformed, ignorant, past
comments.

If she's your friend, I guess you feel compelled to support her.

A bias is:

  prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared
  with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair.

I have friends with biases too.  I overlook the biases because I'm not
perfect either.  So I can see your issue but I'm going to continue to
call it like I see it.

Thanks, Rich.  It's better to just ignore him because he doesn't know
what he doesn't know in this matter :-).

I don't have anything against PL/I.  I was commenting on the
availability of the language at that time.  Most self-respecting
anyboies wouldn't have unlimited access to the hard/software.

I did object to the use of the word "girls" because "boys"
would never be used.  If I were writing the blurb, I'd probably
use the word guys which was generic at the time.

Girl covers any human female except between 14 and 24. Females are girls 
by definition if she is 16 or under. When 24 or older because she is 
trying to persuade everyone that she is younger than she is.

You are showing your DEC background. The mainframes generally all
had pl/1, or pl/g (a subset) if not. Prime had pl/1  or pl/g compilers, 
no less than three of them. (PLP, SPL and full PL/1). 

It is pretty close to the language tops20 should have been written
in.

And then there is of course multics.

I've never claimed differently.

In the 1960s?

There would not have been a TOPS-20 if it had been written in PL/I.
PDP-10 users were used to having compilations and assemblies getting
done quickly.  Doing any BLISS compilations took all the resources
of a -20.

Would it have passed the pre-development security examination?
With the discussions about potential problems using the language,
I wouldn't think so.

Yes, the mainframes had PL/1 pretty early.

Prime was only founded in the 1970s and delivered the first iron to
customers in 1975,

PLP was from the pre-hardware days (Primos originally was built on
a Honeywell machine, and the Prime 50series kept a compatabilty mode
for this processor). This predates 1975, when they made the first
commercial hardware. SPL came a year or two later, and the full
pl/1 after that. The first two were included with the OS, the last
one was a commercial product.

I realise that DEC was not very good at compilers. They used some
weird and pretty buggy languages (like Bliss) and were stuck in 
assembly (but a very good one). A pl/1 subset on a fast compiler
with some language features included to support the OS task at
hand would have been very beneficial. This may have made a port 
to other platforms feasible. 

I have seen it in the competition.

The SPL compiler on Primes was/is the fastest compiler Prime had
on hand, even compared to fortran; it was about even with the PMA (Prime 
Macro Assemble) using the full set of macros.

It was at least as full and expressive language as the Wirth Pascals, 
even though it didn't quite satisfy the pl/g subset (but only minor
things was missing). 

Most of Primos is buildable on current fortran IV and pl/1 compilers; but
the hardware interfaces are weird.

I am not sure what you are referring to here. Multics was always a
pretty secure environment, and became more so in it's later days.
Having the source in PL/1 was a necessary prerequisite for that
security drive.

That's in the 70s which is a long time after the 60s in the computing biz.
Did Univac have PL/I?

BLISS would have never been used if it hadn't been an edict
created by Bell (who came from CMU) and his minion.
COBOL was good except for its ISAM (buggy); but the bugs went away
as soon as Nixon and [can't recall his name] were assigned to
the project.

You are talking about platforms which had the benefit of 1. not having to
be backwards compatible and 2.  got started on new hardware without having
to consider legacies from old hardware.

It isn't secure if the compiler creates problems.  Monitor development
was difficult enough without haveing to wrestlle with bugs or odd
behaviours in the tools used for building the executables of the OS.
A security review would have to be done for every change, including
a one character change, in the sources which built PL/I.  That
security review would have to include looking at everything which
depended on PL/I.  This is NOT an easy project.  To get the same
checksums of the build of the compiler's EXEs takes at least 3
builds of the EXEs using the previous build's EXEs.

And then the builds of all the other OS software have to be examined
to ensure that the edit to the compiler's sources didn't create
unwanted effects.

I am sorry, but you are wrong on this.

Primos started on a Honeywell machine on a NASA funded project in the
early seventies. It took almost 4 years before there was a Prime and a 
functioning, commercially produced Prime machine to run it on.

Version 6, if I remember correctly.

This processor was kept in compatibility mode as R-mode on all subsequent
Prime models. In addition to V-mode, S-mode, I-mode and IX-mode.

Testing, testing. 

Linux and the BSDs do this today, with no appearant problems.

Having code in a high level language with strong enforcement
of stuff like types, function call arguments, and a reasonably
strict structure will help enourmously towards this goal.
C is too lightweight for this, really. Java went of the deep
end in terms of "object orientation". PL/1 or some specialised
dialect would be pretty ideal for such an endeavour.

But as you state above, DEC prople never really trusted the
inhouse compilers.

You do overstate the need for change management in the compilers.
Compiles should be stable over years, and then have well contained
development cycles. You only use the stable ones for OS and CUSP
stuff, so this issue is a little moot.

This is simply false.  DEC s/w development was done almost exclusively on
in-house compilers, and there wasn't any mistrust of them.  Almost all products
were written in either the respective assembly language or BLISS.  I say
"almost," because although I am not aware of any, there may have been some odd
product DEC sold that was written in something else.

IIRC from various DECUS symposia, comments from some VMS developers
noted that for each language compiler that DEC had, at least one module in
VMS was written in that language.

And they used the MDL compiler to generate "include" files for the
different languages describing common data structures.  Although I only
recall Macro-32 and BLISS-32 modules in VMS (at least as of VMS 2.4).

I know there were several languages, including C.  The  compiler is now
open source, so I guess I should say "are" instead of "were", although I
don't recall the name as MDL, I believe SDL.  I played around with porting
it, most is in PL/I, but it seems to have pieces in several different
languages, including Macro-32.  Someone (I believe Tim Sneddon) did a
rewrite in C.

If everything was written in assembly language that would suggest that 
there was indeed distrust of the compilers, or at least some reason for 
not using them.

No, it was just the engineering ethos that went all the way back to the 
start of DEC.

The assemblers were *very* good.

I know, I used them.

But assembler does lock you in to a specific architecture. 

Yes, I know that DEC was a hardware company. But the software was the
driver, and they never saw that before it was too late.

Just as FORTH, in its earliest form, locks you into the
architecture of the English Electric KDF-9

They managed the port to the Itanium rather cleverly.

I believe they did. What they didn't do was see where the market was 
going.

Nope, Bell refused to accept the concept.  It's one of the reasons
he got rid of the PDP-10 business; it required certain hardware
development and the hardware development folklore couldn't allow
it to be wagged by the OS development tail.

In the late 60s, 70s and early 80s DEC was way ahead of where the
computing market was going.  DEC was implementing heterogenous
networks when IBM was still insisting homogenity.  Timesharing
with batch functionality was preparing the masses for the PC
computing era.  I could go on but this list will create
stupidity havoc :-).
