Welcome from CTO Kevin Stoodley


 

We're passionate about our compilation technology and products here at IBM and hope to engage you as we develop and enhance our technology. You'll find this site a great tool to augment your existing resources as you build and deploy your C and C++ applications on IBM systems.


Our café is open to everyone with an interest in XL C/C++. You may be:

  1. Browsing to explore and learn or to give feedback to the product development team
  2. New to using IBM's C/C++ compilers or have been using them for years
  3. A developer who wants to compile an application in the simplest or smartest way possible, by making full use of the many available command line options

The cafe provides opportunity to interact with the compiler development teams as well as with others like yourself. By staying involved in the café community, you can learn about the existing implementations as well as new directions in compiler technology. You can share experiences and hints and tips.


I know I speak for the entire IBM Compilation Technology team in welcoming you to our new café community.

About the IBM C/C++ Café

Compilers are the bridge between your applications and the hardware architectures on which you run your business. They are integral to application efficiency, programmer productivity and code portability.

IBM C/C++ compilers are designed to unleash the full power of IBM processors, including those shipped in industry-leading IBM Power, IBM System z, IBM Blue Gene and Cell Broadband Engine™ server systems. IBM’s C/C++ compiler products are developed specifically to deliver unprecedented performance and reliability on these systems.

We devised this online café community to provide in-depth information to help you take full advantage of IBM C/C++ compiler products. We provide blogs and on-line forums to facilitate conversations in the spirit of fostering community and collaboration. We hope that you will also share your experiences with us, both for the benefit of other community members and to help us deliver features that better suit your needs.
