    Documentation

    The MCP Documentation is available to the public on the Unisys support web page - support.unisys.com. In the Public Information box click on Documentation. Accept any legal disclosures that come up and arrive at the "Documentation Libraries" page.

    Once there either do a search for what you want to find, or there is a tree view at the bottom that can be expanded. Under "ClearPath MCP Servers" expand "System Software" then "ClearPath MCP Software". The MCP Software release numbers are regularly increasing, so for the latest, click on the one at the top. At the time of this writing that would be "MCP Release 17.0". This will take you to a page for that release.

    On this page, click on Application Development or Java Middleware to find information on compilers and software development.
