NSR-E processor
NSR-E processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model E processor (NSR-E
processor).
NSR-G processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model G processor (NSR-G
processor).
NSR-T processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model T processor (NSR-T
processor).
NSR-V processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model V processor (NSR-V
processor).
NSR-W processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model W processor (NSR-W
processor).
NSR-X processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model X processor (NSR-X
processor).
NSR-Y processor. See HP NonStop™ System RISC Model Y processor (NSR-Y

null object type. A placeholder object type for the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF)
NAMES and VERSION commands, which do not require explicit specification of a
particular object type.
null string. In C and C++ programs, a character string that begins with a null character.
This term is synonymous with
empty string.
OBEY file. See command file.
object. One or more of the devices, lines, processes, and files in a subsystem; any entity
subject to independent reference or control by one or more subsystems. In the
Subsystem Control Facility (SCF), each object has an object type
and an object name.
object-code library. Synonym for library.
object code file. A file containing compiled machine instructions for one or more routines.
This file can be an executable loadfile for a program or library or a not-yet-executable
linkfile for some program module. On other systems, an object code file is also known
as a
binary or as an executable.
object name. A unique name for a Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) object within a
subsystem.
object-name template. A name that stands for more than one Subsystem Control Facility
(SCF) object. Such a name includes one or more wild-card characters, such as *
(asterisk) and ? (question mark). See also wild-card character
.
