ILE C++ *PRV

The ILE C compiler has been updated this release to the most current C compiler that IBM

offers on any platform. This new compiler has added more ANSI support, and significant

improvement for cross-platform portability. Portability is further enhanced with the new

Teraspace support which allows for pointer usage and memory management that is more

consistent with other platforms. This new compiler retains all of the iSeries-specific

functionality that it had in previous releases.
