VisualAge C++ for AIX 4.0.2.2 APAR Description and Defect Information ------- ------------------------------------------------ IY04796 VisualAge C++ 4.0.2.2 Maintenance Level This compiler modification is designed to prevent a floating point operation from storing an incorrect value to memory on certain POWER3 systems, whether or not the system firmware has been updated as described in the IBM Service Bulletin dated July 5. Users may expect that the performance impact of this compiler modification will be negligible. We strongly recommend that system administrators apply this PTF to all of their licensed copies of the Visualage C++ for AIX V4R0M2 compiler and recompile all source code that might ever be run on a POWER3 system. This maintenance level is to be applied on machines with V4.0.2 currently installed.
