System Changes
The Rogue Wave Views Component Suite includes the following system changes in Version 4.0.2:
Platform Adjustments
In a constant effort to provide you with the best development environments available, Rogue Wave continually updates its supported platforms. This effort to follow the evolution of compilers and operating systems provides opportunities to add platform upgrades as well as abandoning from time to time the support of older platforms. We publish here the list of ports that will be modified in the next release of the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite, Version 4.0.2.
New Ports
This release includes:
A new 64-bit port for Sun UltraSparcStation users. This port is named
ultrasparc64_5_5.0.
A new library format for HP 11 users that supports the
-AA compilation flag. This port is named
hp32_11_3.30 and includes the following library formats:
static_pic_mt_AA and
shared_mt_AA.
Warning for SGI Users
This release (Version 4.0.2) will be the final release of the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite that supports SGI. Future releases of the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite coming in 2002 will not provide a port for SGI.
Rogue Wave Views 4.0.2 will continue to be supported on the SGI platform until June 2003. We encourage users of the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite on an SGI platform to prepare a migration plan on another platform supported by the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite, or to contact their Rogue Wave representative if the maintenance period needs extension.
Platform Upgrades
The following ports are provided for the last time in this release of the Rogue Wave Views Component Suite (Version 4.0.2). The next release will contiue to deliver a port for these operation systems, but for a more recent version of compiler and operating system:
msvc5 hp_10_1.0 sparc_5_4.2 rs6000_4.3_3.6 i86_linux2_glibc2.1_egcs1.1 alpha_4_6.1 Note for Unix Users: Motif and Shared Libraries
The use of libmviews (Motif-based) is deprecated in shared library format. Since Version 4.0, all shared libraries provided by Rogue Wave Views are built using libxviews and are incompatible with libmviews. Upon request at your Rogue Wave support site, Rogue Wave can provide a new set of shared libraries built on top of libmviews for your platform. For future versions, libmviews will be provided only as a static library and will not be supported in shared format.
