TNS/R native object code.
TNS/R native object code. The RISC instructions that result from processing program
source code with a TNS/R native compiler. TNS/R native object code is optimized to
fully exploit the performance of the RISC architecture. TNS/R native object code
executes only on TNS/R systems, not on TNS systems.
TNS/R native object file. A file created by a TNS/R native compiler that contains RISC
instructions and other information needed to construct the code spaces and the initial
data for a TNS/R native process.
TNS/R native process. A process initiated by executing a TNS/R native object file.
TNS/R native shared run-time library (TNS/R native SRL). An SRL supplied by HP that
is available to TNS/R native processes in the Guardian and OSS environments. A
TNS/R native SRL can be either a public library or a user library (UL) A TNS/R native
process can have multiple public libraries but only one user library.
TNS/R native user library. A user library (UL) available to TNS/R native processes in the
Guardian and OSS environments. A TNS/R native user library is implemented as a
TNS/R native shared run-time library (TNS/R native SRL) It must be created by nld
with the -ul option.
Transaction Application Language (TAL). A systems programming language with many
features specific to stack-oriented TNS systems.
UL. See user library (UL).
user library (UL). An optional loadfile, which you specify at run time, and which the
operating system links to a program file. A program can have only one user library. See
also TNS/R native user library.
volume. An HP physical storage device (disk) for files. HP volume names always begin with
a dollar sign ($).
