ILE C runtime functions are thread-safe in a multi-threaded environment. In addition, the
runtime provides full support for wide-character functions that are either sensitive or
non-sensitive to POSIX locale. Combined with a strong tradition of 100% ANSI compliance,
customers with applications written in C on other platforms can easily migrate these
applications to the AS/400 system.
