IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX 1.96 runtime environment filesets

This topic lists the IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX 1.96 runtime environment filesets, and usage notes for installing and using the runtime environment.

Table 1. IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX 1.96 runtime environment filesets and default installation locations
Fileset name Fileset description Default installation locations
libc++.rte IBM® Open XL C/C++ runtime libraries /usr/lpp/xlC/lib
libc++abi.rte IBM Open XL C/C++ runtime libraries /usr/lpp/xlC/lib
libunwind.rte IBM Open XL C/C++ runtime libraries /usr/lpp/xlC/lib

Difference between the version of the IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX 1.96 runtime environment and the version of the compiler:

Each release of the IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX compiler uses a unique runtime environment. Different releases of the IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX runtime environment can coexist on the same system.

Support to run applications on newer AIX® versions:

If the IBM Open SDK for Rust on AIX 1.96 runtime environment version requirement is met, applications built on an AIX version are supported to run only on that AIX version or later versions. For instance, an application built on an AIX 7.2 TL5 SP7 system with libc++.rte 17.1.3.0 is supported on an AIX 7.2 TL5 SP9 system with the libc++.rte 17.1.3.0 runtime environment installed. However, the application is not supported on an AIX 7.2 system, which is older than AIX 7.2 TL5 SP7, and is also not supported on any AIX version if the libc++.rte version is older than 17.1.3.0. Applications built on an AIX version might run on a older AIX version; however, note that IBM does not warrant or support applications built on an AIX version that are run on a older AIX version.
