TIBCO Rendezvous® 8.8.0

# Link These Library Files

Rendezvous C programs must link the appropriate library files. Choose from the appropriate table based on operating system platform:

| • | UNIX

| • | Microsoft Windows

| • | IBM i

## UNIX

In UNIX environments, both shared and static libraries are available. We recommend shared libraries to ease forward migration.

Linker Flags for UNIX

Linker Flag | Description
Communications, Data and Event Manager All programs must link this library.
`-ltibrv` | Programs that connect to ordinary daemons (`rvd`, `rvrd`) must link using this library flag.
Secure Daemon
    -ltibrvsd
    -lssl
    -lcrypto
| Programs that connect to secure daemons (`rvsd`, `rvsrd`) must also link using these three flags.
Certified Message Delivery, Fault Tolerance, and Distributed Queues Programs may also link one or more of these libraries as needed.
`-ltibrvcm` | Programs that use certified message delivery must link using this library flag. Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag.
`-ltibrvft` | Programs that use fault tolerance features must link using this library flag. Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag.
`-ltibrvcmq` | Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag. In addition, distributed queue programs also use communications, certified message delivery, and fault tolerance libraries; they must link with appropriate flags from those groups.

## Microsoft Windows

Release 8.8.0 supports the following:

| • | 64-bit Windows client libraries and daemons

| • | 32-bit Windows, non-secure libraries only

Both DLLs and static libraries are available. We recommend DLLs to ease forward migration.

This section contains information specific to IBM i platforms.

## Compile & Link

Note | In the following command lines, the slash character (`/`) is a literal; it does not mean either or.

Procedure
