This section discusses the software requirements.
There are four SourcePro C++ products: SourcePro Core, SourcePro DB, SourcePro Net, and SourcePro Analysis. The modules of these products incorporate the functionality of many previous Rogue Wave products.
If you are migrating from Rogue Wave Software's previous .h++ product line, you must recompile and relink your applications to the new SourcePro C++ libraries. Applications using new features in SourcePro C++ must also change internal logic. In this case, you must write to the new API, recompile, and relink. For many modules, the user's guide includes an appendix on migration issues containing more detailed information.
If you are upgrading from an earlier release of SourcePro C++, please note that portions of SourcePro C++ version 6 are not binary-compatible with the previous edition. You must recompile your applications that use SourcePro C++ to link to the new versions of the libraries.
For additional information on compatibility, each user's guide has a section on compatibility in the introduction. For the most recent changes, please consult the SourcePro C++ Release Notes. A PDF version of the release notes is in the top-level directory of the SourcePro C++ installation.
Rogue Wave tests the modules on each CD for compatibility with one another. Rogue Wave does not test the compatibility of modules on a current CD with modules on earlier CDs. Web-only releases between CDs are generally compatible with the most recent CD, but this is not guaranteed.
For information on building components and applications, please see the manuals Installing and Building Your SourcePro C++ Products and Rogue Wave Component Builder (RCB): Building Your Applications.
The phrase "the X Module depends on the Y Module" means that the Y Module must be built before the X Module. The Rogue Wave Component Builder (RCB) checks that dependencies are selected and installed, and ensures that they are built in the proper order. If you are installing prebuilt libraries, the dependencies are already satisfied and included in the set of prebuilt libraries.
All Rogue Wave SourcePro C++ modules depend on the C++ Standard Library and the Essential Tools Module. Beginning with Edition 11 of SourcePro C++, all modules are built using the native C++ Standard Library that comes with your compiler. The only exception to this is on Sun Solaris platforms, where you have the option of using STLPort.
The Essential Tools Module is part of SourcePro Core, which comes with every Rogue Wave SourcePro C++ product.
In addition to dependency on the Essential Tools Module and the C++ Standard Library, individual modules may have other dependencies. These module-level dependencies are summarized in Table 1. Package-level dependencies are explained in the user's guides of individual modules for the convenience of developers who prefer to specify builds by individual packages.
