Help System
C/C++ Productivity Tools' help is online and in HTML format, so if you've browsed the World Wide Web, you already know how to use it effectively.

This advanced online help system is structured to help you accomplish what you need when you need to do it. Here are some of the tasks that you can perform with C/C++ Productivity Tools' new help system:

  • Navigate through a hierarchy of topics by selecting Concepts, Tasks or References. Just follow the hypertext links to get to the topic you want, and then select that link.
  • Get to the References you need when you work. For example, if you are using C/C++ Productivity Tools' editor to code C macros, you can press the F1 key to get syntax help for that macro.
  • Find similar information quickly. Related Topics links at the end of each information section move you through the help information.
  • Search for any word or group of words in the entire set of C/C++ Productivity Tools' HTML help information. Keep your searches simple, or use the full power of an advanced search engine with the Boolean search request.
  • Use your browser's forward and back controls to flip between help pages.
  • View and print groups of HTML information available in Portable Document Format (PDF).
  • View, print, and search PDF documents from the OS/390 C/C++ compiler documentation library with the Adobe Acrobat Reader with search.

Also provided is:

  • A Getting Started document which helps you become quickly familiar with C/C++ Productivity Tools.
