The ILE C compiler has been updated this release to the most current C compiler that IBM
offers on any platform. This new compiler has added more ANSI support, and significant
improvement for cross-platform portability. Portability is further enhanced with the new

consistent with other platforms. This new compiler retains all of the iSeries-specific
functionality that it had in previous releases.
