OpenVMS AXPCXXL01_061 Alpha V6.1 DEC C++ Class RTL ECO Summary

Copyright (c) Digital Equipment Corporation 1995. All rights reserved. OP/SYS: OpenVMS Alpha COMPONENT: DEC C++ Class Run Time Libraries SOURCE: Digital Equipment Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: AXPCXXL01_061 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: None ECO Kit Approximate Size: 880 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS Alpha V6.1, V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2 System Reboot Necessary: No ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for DEC C++ Class Run Time Libraries on OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 through V6.1-1H2. This kit addresses the following problems: o An access violation or segmentation fault is no longer generated when your application writes into an uninitialized ostream_withassign. Instead the written text is simply ignored. o An access violation no longer occurs when a null pointer is passed to the insertion (<<) operator within the ostream class. o A file positioning problem for bidirectional fstreams has been corrected. Previously if your application switched from reading an fstream to writing an fstream, with or without an intervening seek operation, the necessary synchronization of the external file position with the get pointer was often skipped. This resulted in the written data being placed incorrectly within the file. o The real() function within the stopwatch class was incorrectly returning the CPU time. Now it returns the clock time as documented. o The >> operator within the istrstream class now works correctly when the conversion base format is hex and hexadecimal values are read which begin with "0" but are not prefixed with "0x". o The flush() function within the ostream class was incorrectly calling overflow(). Now flush() calls sync() as documented. o The ignore() function within the istream class now works correctly. Previously it would ignore two and only two characters. o The input functions within the stdiostream class no longer skip every other character. o The sync_with_stdio() function within the ios class no longer causes subsequent istream operations to skip every other character. o The SYS$OUTPUT and SYS$ERROR files are no longer opened during the initialization of cout and cerr, respectively. Previously this behavior resulted in an empty file being created when SYS$OUTPUT or SYS$ERROR was defined to be a file and the application generated no output. o The showpoint flag within the ios class now forces the decimal point to be displayed. INSTALLATION NOTES: The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed. However, if you have other nodes in your VMScluster, they should be rebooted or you should install this kit on each system in order to make use of the new image(s).
