 Object REXX for SUN/Solaris Open-source versions of Object REXX for SUN/Solaris are available for the following hardware platform:
Besides numerous useful built-in functions, this version of REXX provides a set of very powerful collection classes making programming of collections easy. The following is a list of facilities included with Object REXX for SUN/Solaris: - It supports a large number of REXX utilities applicable to the Unix-type system environment already known from Object REXX for OS/2 Warp, Object REXX for Windows, or Object REXX for Linux.
- A Security Manager facility provides control over, for example, calls on external functions, use of host commands, and access to the local and environment directories.
- Support of TCP/IP sockets via the RxSocket interface allowing to do network programming using TCP/IP facilities.
- Support of FTP services via the RxFtp interface enabling you to transfer large amounts of files across the network using FTP facilities.
- Support of mathematical functions via the RxMath interface enabling you to solve scientific mathematical problems
- Support of regular expressions via the RxRegExp interface allowing you to search for patterns.
An enhanced set of documentation is available for reference purposes. In addition, a Programming Guide is provided describing the use of the Object REXX facilities, in particular the use of the various REXX Application Programming Interfaces, such as external functions, system exits, the REXX variable pool, the REXX macrospace, and the REXX queue. |
