Write External Functions with Altair IPC
The external programs called from within the program must be written in C and incorporate the Altair IPC functions.
Two example programs containing Altair IPC functions are provided:
Multiplication C-only Filter Example
One example contains C-only source code. The other example contains C source code
that calls a Fortran subroutine. The source code for
each sample is located in the install directory for the program.
Note: Altair IPC uses stdin and
stdout to communicate with the host program. Do not use
stdin or stdout when writing external
programs called through Altair IPC.
