Detailed Description

  New Release of IBM Tools for Developers for i5/OS (formerly          
  IBM e(logo)Server iSeries Tools for Developers).                     
                                                                       
  OVERVIEW:                                                            
                                                                       
  IBM Tools for Developers for i5/OS contains tools that               
  help to develop, build, and port i5/OS applications.                 
  This release contains updated tools and utilities to                 
  aid the i5/OS developer.                                             
                                                                       
  This product is designed to improve and enhance the i5/OS            
  application development environment by providing a wide array        
  of tools to aid in the development, building, and porting of         
  i5/OS applications.  This release of the Tools for Developers        
  for i5/OS product updates some of the tools to newer releases        
  and enables the product to be compatible with current and future     
  i5/OS releases. Additionally, the performance of the VNC tools       
  is significantly improved.                                           
                                                                       
  The tools come from a variety of sources.  Some tools may be         
  familiar to developers since they were ported from other platforms,  
  while other tools are relatively new and are i5/OS specific.         
                                                                       
  This product takes advantage of the different environments found on  
  the System i server, mainly the command line, Qshell, and the i5/OS  
  Portable Application Solutions Environment (i5/OS PASE). Developers  
  who are accustomed to working in a certain environment can           
  remain in that environment when using this product, while taking     
  advantage of the tools and features from the other environments.     
                                                                       
  The following list includes the tools that are currently shipped     
  as part of the Tools for Developers for i5/OS product:

  IBM tools for Developers for IBM i (5799-PTL) was a PRPQ product     
  that contained various tools that aid in the development, building,  
  and porting of IBM i applications. This product was designed to      
  improve and enhance the IBM i development environment by providing a 
  wide array of tools to aid in development, building, and porting of  
  IBM i applications. New, existing, and enhanced tools are included   
  that enable a developer to take advantage of IBM i development       
  capabilities.

Prerequisites:

   -- i5/OS V5R4M0 or later                                            
   -- i5/OS PASE, option 33 of the Operating System (SS1), must be     
      installed in order to use some of the tools                      
                                                                       
   Limitations:  This product takes advantage of i5/OS PASE, option 33 
   of the Operating System, which allows AIX(R) applications to run    
   in i5/OS. By utilizing this functionality, some of the              
   tools have a GUI. However, to take advantage of the GUI, X-windowing
   capability is required.  X-windows can be made available by         
   utilizing Virtual Network Computing (VNC), which is shipped as      
   part of Tools for Developers for i5/OS.  The VNC utility contains an
   X-server which runs on i5/OS.  The images are rendered              
   and sent to a client to be viewed.  Running VNC is not necessary if 
   your client is already running X-window software.                   
                                                                       
   Not every tool is available or practical to use in a command line,  
   Qshell, or i5/OS PASE environment.
