Compatibility Table Legend


Name of Interface
The name of a system call or library routine.

Legacy compatibility

Compiled using SCO OpenServer DevSys

Library Name
The name of the SCO OpenServer library wherein the named interface is defined.

Works on UnixWare 7?
Indicates whether or not an SCO OpenServer binary that uses this interface can be loaded and run on UnixWare 7. See below for possible values.

Compiled using SCO UnixWare 2.1.X SDK

Library Name
The name of the SCO UnixWare 2.1.X library wherein the named interface is define.

Works on UnixWare 7?
Indicates whether or not an SCO UnixWare 2.1.X binary that uses this interface can be loaded and run on UnixWare 7. See below for possible values.

UDK compatibility

Compiled using UnixWare 7 UDK

Library Name
The name of the UnixWare 7 library wherein the named interface is defined.

Works on SCO OpenServer?
Indicates whether or not an UnixWare 7 binary that uses this interface can be loaded and run on SCO OpenServer with the Binary Compatibility Module installed. If there are source differences, they are documented regardless of whether the BCM takes care of them or not. See below for possible values.

Works on SCO UnixWare 2.1.X?
Indicates whether or not an UnixWare 7 binary that uses this interface can be loaded and run on SCO UnixWare 2.1.X with the Binary Compatibility Module installed. If there are source differences, they are documented regardless of whether the BCM takes care of them or not. See below for possible values.

"Works on?"
column value
Meaning
Yes The interface is fully supported on the target platform for SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare 2.1.X binary applications. SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare 2.1.X source code that uses this interface can be recompiled without error using the UnixWare and OpenServer Development Kit.
Yes; notes. The interface is fully supported on the target platform for SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare 2.1.X binary applications. Any differences in implementation are either minor or are resolved by the UnixWare 7 kernel or the Binary Compatibility Module for the platform. The notes detail the differences for those developers who want to port their source code to the UnixWare APIs.
No; recompile. The interface is supported on the target platform, but significant differences between the implementations on the source and target platforms require a recompile of the source code. The notes detail the differences.
No; recode? The interface is supported on the target platform, but significant differences between the implementations on the source and target platforms may require that you recode source that uses this interface. The notes detail the differences.
No; recode. The interface is supported on the target platform, but significant differences between the implementations on the source and target platforms require that you recode source that uses this interface. The notes detail the differences.
-- The interface is not supported on the target platform. Any application that uses this interface on the target platform will produce an error.
