Background documentationCompiling and Linking RFC Programs Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

In general, you have to use an ANSI C compatible C-compiler and set the include and library search path to the installed RFC SDK include and lib directory.

Note Note

The compiler currently supported by SAP is Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.

End of the note.

On some platforms you also have to link the TCP/IP socket libraries explicitly.

Assume.../rfcsdk is the root directory of the unpacked RFC SDK. You must use the following compile/link syntax for the program sapinfo.c on different platforms.

  • HP-UX:

    cc -Ae -I.../rfcsdk/include -L.../rfcsdk/lib sapinfo.c librfc.a

  • AIX (RS/6000):

    ccc -I.../rfcsdk/include -L.../rfcsdk/lib sapinfo.c librfc.a

  • SINIX (RM600):

    /opt/C/bin/cc -I.../rfcsdk/include -L.../rfcsdk/lib sapinfo.c librfc.a -lsocket -lnsl -lusc

    Note Note

    You should use the above compiler because the librfc.a is also compiled with it.

    End of the note.

  • DEC Alpha AXP:

    cc -std1 -unsigne -DA_OSF -I.../rfcsdk/include -L.../rfcsdk/lib sapinfo.c librfc.a

  • SUN (SunPro):

    /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -Xc -xcg92 -I.../rfcsdk/include -L.../rfcsdk/lib sapinfo.c librfc.a -lsocket -lnsl

    Note Note

    You ought to use the above compiler because the librfc.a is also compiled with it.

    End of the note.

  • WINDOWS with a 16-bit C-compiler:

    cl /nologo /Gs /G2 /W4 /AL /D "_DOS" /Od /D "_DEBUG" /Mq /Fesapinfo.exe sapinfo.c librfc16.lib /link

  • WINDOWS with a 32-bit C-compiler:

    cl -nologo -Od -G5 -Z7 -Gs -W3 -J -D_X86_ -DWIN32 /MT /FR -Fesapinfo.exe sapinfo.c librfc32.lib

  • OS/2 2.1 and higher:

    icc -Gm+ -Ss+ -Ti -J- -DOS2 B"/E /NOI /ST:0x8000" sapinfo.c librfc.lib (sample for IBM VisualAge C++ V3)
