PasLib, LANGUAGES, DEC Pascal declarations not in STARLET PASLIB has been developed to allow Pascal programmers to take full advantage of many Digital library and system routines which increase the ease of use, and scope of application of the language. In combination with the Digital-supplied programming language facilities such as STARLET, PASLIB provides the Pascal programmer with a comprehensive environment for both application and systems programming. It is usual to INHERIT environment files which contain the appropriate declarations for the programming environment concerned. The files available in STARLET are detailed in the HELP sub- topic entitled Source_Code. Most Run-Time Library and Utility routines that are not already available in Digital-supplied software are declared in PASLIB. Some routines have been omitted where the same functionality is available in intrinsic Pascal functions. These intrinsic functions should be used in preference to any equivalent RTL or Utility routines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Ridler (VMS Systems Manager) Information Technology Services, Telephone: +61 3 9344 7994 The University of Melbourne, Fax: +61 3 9347 4803 Thomas Cherry Building, Email: jonathan@unimelb.edu.au Parkville, Vic., AUSTRALIA, 3052. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
