Integrated Language Environment C for AS/400 V4R4, 5769-CX2

The IBM ILE C compiler is a full-function compiler for the AS/400 system, compliant with the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) programming Language C (ANSI/ISO
9899-1990).
IBM ILE C for AS/400 provides a high-performance, 100% ANSI-compliant compiler. IBM ILE
C for AS/400 replaces SAA C/400, the System C/400 PRPQ, and the APTA PRPQ. The
primary benefits of using IBM ILE C for AS/400 are performance and easier code reuse. IBM
ILE C for AS/400 simplifies and encourages programmers to migrate their C applications
written on other platforms to the AS/400 system.
IBM ILE C for AS/400 and IBM VisualAge for C++ for AS/400 can bind to components written
in any ILE language. With its rich set of functions, IBM VisualAge C++ for AS/400 and the
IBM ILE C for AS/400 languages complement other languages, such as RPG/400 and
COBOL/400, providing better support for string and bit manipulation, numerical computation,
floating point data, dynamic memory allocation, and system programming functions.
