Micro Focus Plc has announced that it is writing a native code generator for the Sun Microsystems SPARC RISC family so that its Cobol/2 compiler will be available to users of SPARC-based machines. The SPARC thus joins the 80X86 and 68X00 families as strategic platforms for Micro Focus Cobol products. The Newbury, Berkshire company says the development will be among the first to use its proprietary template native code technology that is supplied to manufacturers to enable them to write machine specific code generators for the Micro Focus Cobols.
