RSX11 Developer Connection

A collection of info relating to developing software under RSX11, specifically geared towards RSX11M+.

Note: It is recommended that you create logicals for often-used libraries so you do not have to type the full path every time you wish to use them. For instance, CLIB resolving to LB:[1,1]CFPURSX.OLB.

In general multiple libraries can be included after the filespec, for instance to build a C program with curses support:

$ link hello,lb:[1,1]curses/lib,lb:[1,1]cfpursx/lib

DCL:

$ cc file.c
$ link file.c,lb:[1,1]cfpursx.olb/lib

MCR:

>ccc file
>tkb file=file,lb:[1,1]cfpursx.olb/lb

Note the /lb instead of /lib in MCR.

$ cobol file.cbl
$ link/c81 file

Source code imported from other systems will require cobol/ansi_format if it is in standard columnar format.

$ fortran file.ftn
$ link file,lb:[1,1]f77fcs/lib
