___________________________________________________________________ PRODUCT NAME: DIGITAL C++ Version 6.0 for DIGITAL UNIX Systems SPD 41.91.11 DESCRIPTION DIGITAL C++ for DIGITAL UNIX[R] Systems (formerly DEC C++ for DIGI- TAL UNIX Systems) offers a complete C++ development environment based on a robust implementation of the Final Draft International ANSI C++ Standard (FDIS). DIGITAL C++ used along with the Developers' Toolkit for DIGITAL UNIX and DEC FUSE offers application developers a complete C++ development environment. DIGITAL C++ includes: o The native DIGITAL C++ compiler, which implements the draft ANSI C++ standard. DIGITAL C++ includes support for automatic instan- tiation of templates, pre-compiled headers, and C++ exception han- dling. DIGITAL C++ for DIGITAL UNIX Systems generates optimized ob- ject code without employing an intermediate translation to C. o The highly optimizing, reliable Alpha code generator for speed of generated code. o The C++ Standard Library, including the string library, numeric_ limits, auto_ptr, standard exception classes, complex math library, and the Standard Template Library (STL). Portions of the C++ Stan- dard Library have been implemented using source licensed from and copyrighted by Rogue Wave Software, Inc. o DEC C++ Class Library, containing the following packages: iostream, complex, generic, Messages, Objection, Stopwatch, String, task, and vector. If you are using DIGITAL UNIX Version 4.0 or later, the Class Library is threadsafe and also contains a Mutex package. o Features to facilitate porting to DIGITAL C++ from other C++ im- plementations. The -cfront option relaxes error checking for bet- ter compatibility with C++ compilers based on the AT&T "cfront" trans- lator. The -ms option provides better compatibility with Microsoft's Visual C++ (TM). DIGITAL January 1998 DIGITAL C++ Version 6.0 for DIGITAL UNIX Systems SPD 41.91.11 o A name demangler, that enables other tools (besides the compiler and debugger) to present demangled names to the user. Application developers using DIGITAL C++ are required to purchase a license for the Developers' Toolkit for DIGITAL UNIX. This product pro- vides a set of UNIX development tools that include: a symbolic source- level debugger (Ladebug), ATOM based performance and analysis tools, program analysis tools (profiling and performance analysis), two ANSI conformant C Compilers (including DEC C for DIGITAL UNIX), reorder- ing tools (cord, feedback, and runcord), and the Porting Assistant, which aids in porting to DIGITAL UNIX from other UNIX platforms and from OpenVMS. For further information on these products, please see SPD 44.36. The Ladebug debugger provides basic debugging capabilities as well as specific support for the C++ language, including function name and op- erator overloading, C++ scoping, templates, C++ exception handling, multiple inheritance, virtual base classes, and virtual functions. Both window-based and dbx-style command-line interfaces are provided. C++ debugging on DIGITAL UNIX is not supported by dbx, only by Ladebug. Application developers interested in an integrated, graphical, GUI- based, extensible development environment may be interested in pur- chasing licenses for DEC FUSE and the DEC FUSE C++ Support option. For more information, please see SPD 44.71. For more information on the Developers' Toolkit, C Developers' Exten- sions and DEC FUSE, please see the Optional Software section below. DIGITAL C++ supports the DIGITAL UNIX features of shared libraries and 64-bit computing. The DIGITAL C++ documentation provides comprehensive reference and us- age information for all product components. Online reference pages (man pages) are provided with the software, and browser-based (html) doc- uments are provided on the Layered Products Documentation CD-ROM for the following manuals: Using DIGITAL C++ on DIGITAL UNIX Systems, DIG- ITAL C++ Installation Guide for DIGITAL UNIX Systems, and the DEC C++ Class Library Reference Manual. Hardcopy documentation is available 2 DIGITAL C++ Version 6.0 for DIGITAL UNIX Systems SPD 41.91.11 by ordering the separate software documentation kit. The hardcopy doc- umentation kit also includes a copy of an authoritative book on C++, The C++ Programming Language, 3rd Edition, by Bjarne Stroustrup. Run-Time Library Redistribution: The DIGITAL C++ kit includes updated Run-Time Library shareable im- ages. Digital grants the user a nonexclusive royalty-free worldwide right to reproduce and distribute the executable version of the Run- Time Library ("the RTL's") provided that the user: o distributes the RTL's only in conjunction with and as a part of the users's software application product which is designed to operate in the DIGITAL UNIX environment; o does not use Digital's name, logo, or trademarks to market the user's software application product; o includes Digital's copyright notice for DIGITAL C++ on the user's product disk label and/or on the title page of the documentation for the software application product; and o agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Digital from and against any claims or lawsuits, including attorney's fees, that arise or result from the use or distribution of the software application prod- uct. Except as expressly provided herein, Digital grants no implied or express license under any of its patents, copyrights, trade se- crets, trademarks, or any license or other proprietary interests and rights. For DIGITAL UNIX systems, the RTL images are designated as: o libcomplex.a, libcomplex.so, o libcxx.a, libcxx.so, CXXREDIST600V01.tar o libcxxstd.a, o libcxxstd_oldcxx.a, o _main.o, o libtask.a, libtask.so, 3 DIGITAL C++ Version 6.0 for DIGITAL UNIX Systems SPD 41.91.11 o cxxl.cat, cxxl_messages.cat Refer to the DIGITAL C++ Version 6.0 Release Notes for details on how to redistribute the RTL images provided with this DIGITAL C++ kit.
