Datastage Parallel Engine language

At the lowest levels the DataStage server engine is largely written in C. Once upon a time there was some FORTRAN and PL/I in there too, but I believe that's no longer the case. Only the "public" levels are written in DataStage BASIC.

The clients are written in a mish-mash of languages, including C++, Visual Basic, Java, HTML and others. This is one of the reasons the Designer is proving so hard to port to wholly browser-based version.

FORTRAN and PL/I? Sheesh.

Also APL ("a programming language", would you believe?), but I considered that to be a variant of PL/I so did not include it.

Thanks for quick reply.

( I will try to close the topic ( if allowed) if have no further doubts in couple of days).
