C Programming in the Guardian Environment

Trainings-ID:
U4143S

Inhalt des Trainings

Through a series of lectures and labs, you are taught how to use both the C compiler and the native mode C compiler used with HPE NonStop™ servers, how to take advantage of various extensions, and how to interface with Guardian system procedures. In learning to use those compilers, you will become familiar with various aspects of the unique C run-time environment such as memory model issues, diagnostics, special debugging issues, and the retrieval of specific run-time and environment information. Prior C knowledge is essential.

After you successfully complete this course, expect to be able to:
  • Perform C Programming within the Guardian system procedures
  • Understand the unique aspects of the C run-time environment such as memory model issues, diagnostics, special debugging issues, and the retrieval of specific run-time and environment information
