Additional Information
HP provides lots of information to software development on its websites at hp.com. But as
always, the larger the amount of information available, the harder is it to find something on a
specific topic. This chapter lists the most important links that lead to software development
related pages on the HP website as well as on other resources.
Official HP Websites
These are the main entry points when looking for documentation about software development in
general and to development products.
[1] http://www.hp.com/go/<product>
Replace <product> with the product you are looking for, and it will redirect you to the
official product webpage within the HP website. This works for a lot of product names, e.g.
“C”, “C++”, “Fortran”, “java”, “gdb”, “wdb”.
[2] http://www.hp.com/go/bsc
The Business Support Center is the HP website for customers to get access to official
documents to HP products. The above link leads to online programmers guides and release
notes for compilers, the linker and programming toolkits under the “Manuals” link.
[3] http://www.hp.com/go/dspp/
This is the developer & solution partner portal. This site is dedicated to software
development on HP systems, not only HP-UX, but also Linux and Windows. You can find
links to all development specific information sources like online programmers guides, release
notes, online tutorials, sample codes, newsgroups, books and also to non-HP information
sources.
[4] http://devresource.hp.com/
This is another entry point when searching development related information. Its focus lies on
integration of applications with HP software.
[5] http://software.hp.com
The HP Software Depot. This is the central website for downloading HP software. All
products like compilers and developers toolkits that must be purchased, can be ordered here.
But also free supported products can be obtained from here.

The HP Solution Center. Provides contract customers with access to the knowledge database,
allows patch and software update downloads, and many things more.
