Summary of contents and target group

This User Guide describes how C/C++ programs are processed with the C/C++ compiler and other components of the C/C++ Development System in a BS2000 system environment (SDF) under the BS2000 operating system.

It is intended for users who are familiar with the programming languages C and C++ as well as the BS2000 operating system.

The following topics are dealt with here:

• Preparing and compiling source programs

• Creating listings with the global listing generator

• Linking, loading and starting

• Executing C/C++ programs (parameter input, debuggers)

• Linkage to functions and languages

• C language support of the compiler (overview of C language modes, implementation defined behavior, #pragma directives, extensions to the ANSI/ISO C standard)

• C++ language support of the compiler (overview of C++ language modes,implementation defined behavior)

• Brief description of the C++ libraries supplied with CRTE

You can also develop programs in a POSIX environment by using the cc, c89, CC and cclistgen commands. These commands are described in a separate manual under the title “POSIX Commands of the C/C++ Compiler” [1], which serves as the main reference source for POSIX commands.
For more detailed information on the features and functionality of the compiler (beyond the scope of POSIX control), see also the following sections and chapters in this User Guide:

• section “The optimization process”

• section “Structure of compiler messages”

• chapter “C language support of the compiler”

• chapter “C++ language support of the compiler”

• chapter “Linkage to functions and languages”

• chapter “The C++ libraries and C++ runtime system”

In the text, references to other publications are given using short titles. The full title of each publication is listed in the “References” section.
