6.0 SP7 (32bit) Available: 2001-12-17
Release Notes:
- The HP-UX kernel patch PHKL_20995 and any dependent patches are required. If this patch is not installed, ObjectStore can cause the operating system to crash (a UNIX kernel panic).
- The HP-UX kernel patches, PHNE_23456 and PHNE_23249, and all dependent patches must also be installed for ObjectStore to operate correctly. PHCO_23770 is a dependent patch that must be installed to enable correct pthread operation.
- Use of JDK 1.3 on HP-UX 32-bit - To ensure compatibility between ObjectStore and JDK 1.3 on HP-UX 32-bit, you can set the LD_PRELOAD environment variable as follows: setenv LD_PRELOAD libos.sl:libosth.sl
- Address Space Allocation on HP-UX with JDK 1.3 - Depending upon your system configuration, you may need to adjust ObjectStore
New features:
- Dump/Load performance improvements are included in this Service Pack.
- The ObjectStore C++ Interface (OSCI) is supported on Compaq Tru64 UNIX release 5.1 as well as 4.0 in this Service Pack release.
- HP-UX 32-bit now supports OSCI, OSJI, DDML, CMTL, and JMTL
- Heterogeneity considerations on several platforms are described in the Release Notes, Chapter 1 under the heading "Language Feature Restrictions." If you depend on heterogeneous operation, be sure to review the Release Notes carefully
