Editing C/C++ source files

To create C/C++ source programs, you can use any text editor available to your system.

Source programs must be saved using a recognized file name suffix. See the XL C/C++ input and output files for a list of suffixes recognized by XL C/C++.

For a C or C++ source program to be a valid program, it must conform to the language definitions specified in the XL C/C++ Language Reference.
