-
-
- The Silicon Graphics ImageVision Library (IL) Execution
- environment is required on any system that runs IL programs.
- Applications such as the IRIX Interactive Desktop
- environment, Insight and the ImageVision tools all require
- this subsystem. Since the necessary il_eoe subsystems are
- installed as a default, most users should not have to
- concern themselves with further details. However, the
- curious user may be interested in using IL derived tools or
- programming directly with the IL. You can refer to the
- ImageVision Tools book or the IL man page for some example
- applications derived from IL.
-
-
- IL Execution environment software consists of a primary
- library for C++ as well as supporting libraries for C and
- Fortran based applications. Additionally, a set of
- libraries used for supporting several file formats are
- included in the il_eoe subsystems. The IL reference man
- page contains more information about IL derived
- applications.
-
- Important note: for backwards compatibility, the IL 2.5.1
- and IL 3.0 libraries are included in the ImageVision
- Library release. This allows applications linked
- with IL release 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.5.1 or 3.0 to
- continue to run. However, to take advantage of
- performance tunes and bugs fixed since the IL 2.5.1
- or IL 3.0 release, or to work with OpenGL you must
- recompile and relink against the IL libraries. IL
- is binary compatible with IL release 3.1, 3.1.1 and
- 3.1.2.

-
- After you install the online documentation for a product
- (the _r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s subsystem), you can view the release notes on
- your screen.
-
- If you have a graphics system, select ``Release Notes'' from
- the Tools submenu of the Toolchest. This displays the
- _g_r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) graphical browser for the online release notes.
-
- Refer to the _g_r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) man page for information on
- options to this command.
-
- If you do not have a graphics system, you can use the
- _r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s command. Refer to the _r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) man page for
- accessing the online release notes.
