1 CA Plex Compatibility Matrix for Retired Releases Last Updated: September th, 07 Plex Development Platforms ,sp sp, Windows R Windows Windows Vista, SP 4 4 Windows P SP3 4 4 Windows P Windows 000 Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows NT 4.0 Tested with P SP and SP Tested with P SP 3 Tested with 3-bit editions of Windows 4 Tested with 3-bit and 64-bit editions of Windows Plex does NOT support the following development platform: Citrix Winframe - a multi-user Windows application server based on Windows NT, that supports application deployment using a thin client architecture. Windows Client (C++) Deployment Platforms: 3-bit client (WinC) applications generated by Plex can be deployed to the following platforms: Windows 8 Windows sp sp,

2 Windows Vista SP Windows P SP3 Windows P 000 Windows 000 Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows NT 4.0 Tested with P SP and SP 6-bit client applications generated by Plex can be deployed to the following platforms: a.5 Windows 95 Windows for Workgroups 3. Windows NT 4.0 Windows 3. Windows NT 3.5 Tested on 3-bit and 64-bit operating systems. Plex Windows C++ applications are 3-bit applications that execute under WOW64 environment on 64-bit Windows. For full 64-bit execution use the C# or Java generators. Plex 3. is the last release to support 6-bit applications. Plex does NOT support the following client application deployment platforms: Windows CE - Microsoft's hand held organizer operating system which supports a subset of the Windows APIs Win3S - A DLL which allows some 3-bit applications to run under 6-bit Windows. A 3 bit application generated with Plex cannot be executed on a 6-bit platform.

3 Windows C++ Server Deployment Platforms Server applications generated by the Plex Windows C++ generator can be deployed to: ,sp ,sp, R R Window NT 4.0 Tested with 003 SP Tested with 003 SP R 3 Tested on 3-bit and 64-bit operating systems. Plex Windows C++ applications are 3-bit applications that execute under WOW64 environment on 64-bit Windows. For full 64-bit execution use the C# or Java generators. Microsoft Visual C++ Versions: Older versions of Visual Studio may be obtained from Microsoft via an MSDN subscription or by purchasing the current version and requesting a downgrade. Please verify terms and conditions with Microsoft. Older versions may also be available from third-party resellers. Visual Studio Express edition is NOT compatible with Plex C++ builds, because it does not include the MFC libraries. Visual Studio 005 Service Pack is available as a separate download from Microsoft and must be installed after Visual Studio 005. In addition, on Windows Vista, 008 R and Windows 7, the "Visual Studio 005 Service Pack Update for Windows Vista" should be installed. All internal testing of CA Plex WinC and WinNTC applications are carried out using the English language install of Visual Studio 005. Visual Studio 005 SP Standard, Professional or Architect edition ,sp sp, ,sp Visual Studio.NET 003 (7.) Professional edition or higher

4 Visual Studio 6.0, SP5 Visual Studio 6.0, SP4 Visual Studio 6.0, SP3 Visual Studio Microsoft Visual C or (Visual Studio 6.0) with Service Pack 5 is required. Microsoft Visual C or (Visual Studio 6.0) with Service Pack 4 is required. 3 Microsoft Visual C or (Visual Studio 6.0) with Service Pack 3 is required. 4 Microsoft Visual C or (Visual Studio 6.0) with Service Pack and VCQFE00005 are required for Plex 4.0. Both the service pack and the VCQFE0005 are located on the Plex 4.0 install CD. The professional and enterprise editions of Visual C are supported. The standard edition does not support "code optimization", so we recommend at least the professional edition. 3.5, sp MSVC 5.0, sp3 MSVC 5.0 MSVC 4. MSVC.5 MSVC Service Pack 3 (SP3) is located on the Plex 3.5 CD. Required if building 6-bit applications. Plex 3. is the last Plex release to support 6-bit applications. Microsoft.NET C# Client and Server Generators Visual Studio is NOT required for C# development; however, Visual Studio 00, 0 or 03 may be useful for debugging and other development activities in which case the Express edition is the minimum requirement for this purpose. If you are generating and deploying WPF clients or WCF services, then the.net Framework is the minimum requirement. Microsoft.NET Framework 4.0, 3-bit and 64-bit Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5, 3-bit and 64-bit

System i dispatcher and runtime. The Plex 6. System i runtime is backwards compatible with earlier releases of Plex. For details, see QI95.

6 Communications Software for the AS/400: Communications software packages supported for the AS/ and AS/400 Client-server platforms: Netsoft N/S Midrange Bundle V4. through V5. 3-bit NS/Elite for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT IBM PC Support/400 for V3R, V3R6, V3R7, V4R, V4R, V4R3, V4R4 IBM Client Access/400 and Client Access for Windows 95/98 for V3R, V3R6, V3R7, V4R, V4R, V4R3, V4R4 If you build 6 bit applications: If you build 3 bit applications pre - Plex 5.0 TCP/IP V3R or higher 3 If you build 3 bit applications at 5.0 V4R5 or Higher Netsoft's NS/Midrange Bundle does not support shared folders for Windows 95. There is a known performance problem transferring source to the AS/400 using Netsoft Portfolio., Windows NT 4.0 and 80. protocol. Netsoft has acknowledged the problem and is working towards a solution. Until a fix is available, using Netsoft Portfolio., Windows NT 4.0 and 80. protocol to transfer source to the AS/400 is not recommended. 3 Available starting in Plex (formerly Obsydian) 3.0.
