R-code Portability

R-code is portable between any two environments if the following are true:

All machines that require four-byte alignment or less are compatible. Thus, r-code compiled on one of these machines (for example, a Sun SPARCstation) can run on most other machines. One of the few machines not compatible with this class is the AS/400, which requires greater than four-byte alignment.

Thus, you can use the same r-code compiled for Windows on any DataServer-compatible Windows system, and you can use the same r-code compiled in character mode on any DataServer-compatible character-mode system.
