Problem:

Following the steps in the Resolution below it should be possible to discover which Native Code Generator created a .GNT or .O file.

This can be useful if you want to discover which release of Server Express was used.

Resolution:

Open the GNT/OBJ file with the command:

what filename

or

strings filename | fgrep "@(#)"

Seach the contents of the file for  @(#)

There should be a string which looks like:

  @(#)Hello      99051015180266 GNR-049060000AC  Genesis PowerPC hilo 1.231>

or

  @(#)hello      99051015393162 GNR-054060000AC  tcg1di386 1.422>

which means:

hello - base name of the INT file from which this file was generated.

99051015393162 - date and time when it was generated.

GNR-054060000AC - version of checker stamp which comes from the INT file.

tcg1di386 - version of the generator used.

1.422 - version of the generator.
