These products have their own documentation, which is required in addition to this book. This book defines the interface elements that are common across the environments. This book and other product publications describe any additional elements and--more importantly--explain how to prepare and run a program in a particular environment.

See the appropriate product chapters in "Part 3. CPI-C 2.1 Implementation Specifics" for a list of product documentation currently available.
