S-PLUS 6.2 is built with Microsoft VC++6.0 and Compaq/DEC
FORTRAN 6.0. All samples shipped with S-PLUS 6.2 have been tested with VC++6.0
and Compaq/DEC FORTRAN 6.0. If you use Microsoft VC++6.0 and Compaq/DEC Fortran 6.0 in your projects that link to S-PLUS, use the
import libraries in SHOME\lib. For example, sqpe.lib
is the import library for sqpe.dll containing the core S-PLUS interpreter, and sconnect.lib is the import library for sconnect.dll
containing the CONNECT/C++ class library.
Previous builds of S-PLUS 6 for Win32 used Visual Studio 6.0
Service Pack 3 to build the engine, GUI, and all samples and utilities shipped
with the program. To fix some issues in MFC (the Microsoft Foundation Classes)
that S-PLUS is based on, we updated the compiler to
Service Pack 5. If you have built any C/C++ or Fortran applications using
CONNECT/C++ or have modified one of the sample applications for your own
purposes, you should install the Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 5 update, and
recompile and relink these applications to ensure
there are no runtime problems related to changes that may have occurred in
Microsoft shared *.dll files.
File input and output is fully supported in C code called
from S-PLUS, but input and output directed to the standard streams STDIN,
STDOUT, and STDERR requires special handling. This special handling is provided
by the header file newredef.h, which is included in S.h and sconnect.h. If you need
to disable this behavior, define NO_NEWIO before S.h
or sconnect.h. For example:
#define NO_NEWIO
#include "S.h"
