===========
As detailed in the C and C++ Compilers on OS/2 and Windows Withdrawal Announcement 901-013 dated January 23, 2001, the following C and C++ compilers went out of service on September 28, 2001:
VisualAge C++ for OS/2, V3.0
VisualAge for C++ for Windows (TM), V3.5
C and C++ Compilers for OS/2, AIX and for Windows NT, V3.6
VisualAge C++ Professional for OS/2 and Windows NT, V4.0
There is no replacement program for these compilers, as these products have been stabilized. There are no Fix Packs in plan, nor will new documentation (eg. FAQs) be created. This document is provided "as is" since these compilers are no longer supported.

========
This Fix Pack 1 is divided into two parts. Part 1 is mandatory which includes fixes to the
core components. Part 2 is optional, which includes IOC source, samples and tech preview.
To install this Fix Pack perform the following steps :
(1) Unzip the Fix Pack into a temporary directory. The unzipped Fix Pack
occupies less than 90M bytes for Part 1 and less than 245M bytes for Part 2.
(2) Make sure you are currently in the directory into which the Fix Pack
was unzipped.
(3) Issue the following command :
INSTALL
(4) (a) If you are installing this Fix Pack locally, select "Install Fix Pack 1 locally" from the
Install Selection menu. The Fix Pack install will overwrite the installed files only if the
time stamp of the installed files are older.
(b) If you are installing this Fix Pack to an XCOPYed LAN image, select "Install Fix Pack 1 to
CD image on LAN drive" from the Install Selection menu. The install will ask you for the
location of IBM VisualAge C++. Both the drive and the path of the target CANNOT be empty.
All the files in the Fix Pack will overwrite the CD image files, however, the time stamp of the fixed
files will not be updated when IBM VisualAge C++ is installed.
The following conditions must exist for Fix Pack installation to be
successful:
(1) No IBM VisualAge C++ Professional tools can be open in any
session when you install the Fix Pack.
(2) The Feature Installer Runtime must be installed on the system. Since this is
a prerequisite for installing the IBM VisualAge C++ product please refer to the
install.txt of the product for the installation notes of the Feature Installer Runtime.
(3) The Fix Pack level must be equal to or greater than the previously
installed level (if any). Note that Fix Packs are cumulative.
(4) If you had XCOPYed the CD image to a LAN drive, you can apply
this Fix Pack to the LAN drive.
(5) If you are operating from a CD/Network install, the Fix Pack
must first be applied to the LAN image, and then applied to the
local machine.
(6) IBM VisualAge C++ and the Fix Pack must be in the same language.
(7) If the installation is not completed successfully, a Feature Installer object VACFP1
may remain in the {BootDrive}\OS2\install directory. Remove the object before restarting
the Fix Pack install.
The following section identifies known problems or limitations for applications executing on OS/2
Warp Server 4.
IBM Open Class
The ITabControl class is not supported on OS/2 Warp Server 4. If you are building applications for
both the OS/2 Warp 4 and OS/2 Warp Server 4 environments, you should use the INotebook class.
Note to Those Including Parts in their Configuration Files
You should note that the frequent segmentation violations that
occurred with the GA version of the product no longer occur. However,
it should be noted that two builds may be required when a part
is changed: the first build after changing a part will generate the
source code reflecting the changes to the part but the source changes
will not be compiled as part of the first build; the second build is
required to incorporate the changed source code. If one generates the
part source from within the Visual Builder before doing a build then
only one build will be required.
