Optimizing Agilent VEE Programs

Compiled Function using C (UNIX)

The process of using compiled functions in other languages involves shared

libraries on HP-UX platforms. You can dynamically link a program written

in C, C++, Fortran, and Pascal with a VEE program on a UNIX workstation.

Note that Pascal compiled functions are only supported on the HP 9000,

Series 700 workstations.

The program shown in Figure 11-10 imports a library and calls a C function.

The C function accepts a real array and adds 1 to each element in the array.

The modified array is returned to VEE on the

Array terminal of the Call

Function

object, and the size of the array is returned on the Ret Value

terminal. This example is located in the following VEE directory:

/examples/manual/manual49.vee.

Note File extensions are as follows: a “.vee” extension indicates a program; a

“

.c” extension indicates a file containing C source code; a “.h” or “.def”

extension signifies a definition file; and a “

.sl” extension indicates a shared

library file.
