ABOUT SYMANTEC C++ FOR MACINTOSH 7.0.2

INTRODUCTION
=============
Symantec C++ for Macintosh version 7.0.2 corrects problems with the 7.0
release of the following components of Symantec C++ for Macintosh:
THINK Project Manager, THINK Debugger, Symantec C++, and THINK C.
The files in the “Release Notes” folder lists the most important bugs that
this update fixes in the various components of Symantec C++ for Macintosh.
About Version Numbers
---------------------
Owners of the “Symantec Developers Advantage Release” CD-ROM have the
7.0.1 components contained in this update, except for the C++ translator. You
should update the 7.0.1 translator (contained in the folder ‘Pre-Release’ in the
‘Symantec C++’ folder) to 7.0.2.
The next patch release will contain consistent version numbers across all
components.
UPDATING YOUR SYSTEM
=====================
This section tells you how to run the various patch programs to update your
Symantec C++ for Macintosh components, and how to update your libraries.
This update contains four small applications in the ‘Patches’ folder that
will transform your components into the new versions. Updating is easy:
• Make sure that you update a clean installation of Symantec C++ for
Macintosh 7.0. While the patch applications will probably work with
your existing installation, they are not guaranteed to.
• Double-click on the patch application (e.g. “TPM 7.0.1 Patch”).
• Read the messages in the dialog that comes up; they may contain
important information. Click the ‘Patch’ button.
• Find the component asked for using the standard file dialog box.

IMPORTANT
•••••••••
The patch is done in place! This means that the patcher will overwrite
the file you’re updating. When it is done, you will get a confirmation that
the patch was successful if all goes well.
• Repeat these steps for the other patches in the ‘Patches’ folder:
Symantec C++ 7.0.2 Patch
THINK C 7.0.1 Patch
THINK Debugger 7.0.1 Patch
• You must re-precompile any precompiled headers with the new compilers. To
re-precompile MacHeaders and MacHeaders++:
1) Launch the THINK Project Manager and create an Empty project.
2) Open the file “Mac #includes.c” which is located in the “Mac #includes”
folder.
3) Choose ‘Precompile…’ from the Source menu. Save the precompiled header
as ‘MacHeaders’ replacing the one in the “Precompiled Headers” folder in
in the “Mac #includes” folder.
4) Repeat steps (2) and (3) for the file “Mac #includes.cpp”, saving it as
“MacHeaders++”.
NOTE: If you are going to update the THINK Class Library to version 2.0.2 then
wait to rebuild TCLHeaders until after you've updated the TCL. Instructions for
doing this can be found in the READ ME for the VA/TCL update.
Updating the Libraries
--------------------
The library updates are contained in a Compact Pro self extracting archive.
Installing them is easy:
• Double-click on the file “Library Updates.sea”.
• When it asks you to “Select the destination folder”, move to your
Symantec C++ for Macintosh folder and click “Extract”.
• The archive will begin to extract its files, and at one point will say
that a duplicate file was found. This is correct; press the “Replace ALL
Duplicates” button to finish the installation.
