DAVIS, Calif., October 8, 2002 - SoftIntegration, Inc., the leader of scripting technology for ubiquitous computing, today announced the release of Ch SDK for Mac OS X. Ch is a superset of C/C++ interpreter. Ch SDK allows Ch scripts to interface C/C++ binary modules.

Ch SDK for Mac OS X allows cross platform C/C++ libraries accessed via C compatible scripts. Ch scripts can access compiled C/C++ libraries such as static library, shared library or Dynamically Linked Library (DLL). All C/C++ library functions can run in Ch without modifications. There is no distinction between the interpreted and compiled code.

Ch supports ISO C standard, C++ class, POSIX, GTK+, Win32, OpenGL, X/Motif and socket/WinSock with over 8,000 functions. It is an interpretive implementation of C as Unix/Windows command shell. Ch bridges the gap between C and Unix shell. Unix shell commands such as grep, awk, and sed can run inside Ch shell in the same manner as in BASH and csh shells. Ch is a C-compatible shell whereas csh is a C-like shell. Ch can be used in either command shell or program mode interpretively.

Ch also supports computational arrays and C LAPACK for linear algebra and matrix computations, 2D/3D plotting and scientific numerical computing with advanced high-level numerical functions for linear systems, differential equation solving, integration, non-linear equations, curve fitting, fast Fourier analysis, etc. For example, linear equation b = A*x can be written verbatim in Ch. Ch is an ideal solution for automating repetitive tasks, hardware testing, rapid application development, and interactive teaching and student learning.

Ch Standard Edition is free for academic and non-profit organizations. In addition to Mac OS X, Ch supports Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, and Linux.
