1.7 Available Documentation

This product's documentation consists of a readme file, HTML files, and printed manuals. Some documentation is also available in PDF format (as noted in Table 4), and can be printed through Adobe Acrobat

1.7.1 Readme File

The readme file contains important information regarding specific compilers and operating systems, how to use shared libraries and DLLs, solutions to common problems, and other items of interest. The installation process places a copy of this file into the <rw_root>\parts\tls<ver><osfam>\docs directory. We urge you to read all the files in the docs directory, but especially the readme file.

You can also display the toolread.doc file from within SPM by selecting the product in the Installed Parts folder on the Build Info tab, and clicking the right mouse button. We recommend that you read this file before building the library.
