Issue/Introduction

Resolution

When you install only the CA Optimizer/II R8.5 Runtime component(CRX8500), the CA Optimizer/II.CAILIB and the CA Optimizer/II.CARXLOAD is created. But there is no member in the CA Optimizer/II.CAILIB.
And, if you need the compile function of the CA Optimizer R7.0, you need the the CA Optimizer.CAILIB and the CA Optimizer.CAILPA.
In this case, you need the following 3 libraries. Please register as follows.
