native
native. An adjective that can modify object code, object file, process, procedure, and mode
of process execution. Native object files contain native object code, which directly uses
MIPS or Intel® Itanium® instructions and the corresponding conventions for register
handling and procedure calls. Native processes are those created by executing native
object files. Native procedures are units of native object code. Native mode execution
is the state of the process when it is executing native procedures.
native mode. See TNS/E native mode.
native-mode code. Object code that has been compiled with TNS/R native compilers to run
on TNS/R systems or with TNS/E native compilers to run on TNS/E systems.
native-mode library. A native-compiled loadfile associated with one or more other native-
compiled loadfiles. A native mode process can have any number of associated native-
mode libraries. See also TNS library and TNS/E library.
native-mode source code. High-level language routines that can be compiled with TNS/E
native compilers. These two sets of compilers accept the same language dialects.
