The
SAS/C Compiler,
Release 7.00 is a portable implementation of the high-level C programming
language. The primary elements of the SAS/C Compiler
are the compiler and the run-time library. Additionally, the compiler product
also includes a number of utility programs, as well as several configurations
of the run-time library for specialized environments. Although the compiler
is heavily oriented for use in large software systems, it is an efficient
tool for any software project that is written in the C language.
Compiler features include the following:
The compiler also provides a complete library of functions, including
functions compatible with the International Standards Organization (ISO) and
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C language standards as well
as functions that support nonstandard features such as interuser communication.
The library also includes functions defined by the ISO POSIX 1003.1 and 1002.1a
standards, plus other functions from UNIX operating systems. Extensive information
about the library and each library function is provided in
SAS/C Library Reference, Volume 1 and
SAS/C Library Reference, Volume 2.
