TNS/R native object file
TNS/R native object file. An object file created by a TNS/R native compiler that contains
MIPS 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.
Compare to TNS process.
TNS/R native shared run-time library (TNS/R native SRL). A shared run-time library
(SRL) available to TNS/R native processes in both the Guardian and HP NonStop™
Open System Services (OSS) environments. TNS/R native SRLs can be either public
or private. A TNS/R native process can have multiple public SRLs but only one private
SRL.
TNS/R native user library. A user library available to TNS/R native processes in both the
Guardian and HP NonStop™ Open System Services (OSS) environments. A TNS/R
native user library is implemented as a special private TNS/R native shared run-time
library (TNS/R native SRL).
UL. See user library (UL).
user library (UL). (1) An object code file that the operating system links to a program file at
run time. A program can have only one user library. See also TNS user library and
TNS/R native user library. (2) A library loadfile associated with a program so that it
emulates the user library feature of the operating system on TNS systems. For PIC
(position-independent code) programs on TNS/R systems, the user library is a
dynamic-link library (DLL). It is treated as if it were the first library in the program's
libList. Consequently, it is searched first for symbols required by the program.
However, a user library does not appear in the program's libList. Instead, its name is
recorded internally in the program's loadfile. A program can be associated with at most
one user library. The association can be specified using the linker at link time, in a later
change command, or at run time by using the process creation interfaces. (The /LIB …/
option to the RUN command in TACL uses these interfaces.)
volume. A logical disk, which can be one or two magnetic disk drives. In HP NonStop™
S-series systems, volumes have names that begin with a dollar sign ($), such as
$DATA.
