How and Where can I check the Runtime Library information, multi-threaded STL library or something else?

I did not have too much knowledge about computer. It looks that the CPLEX manual assume everyone have already known what is Runtime library. But this is a new term to me. I am so frustrated to learn new software. But I am OK with programming itself. "Runtime library" "environment variable"......Any entry level computer book for me to get rid of this kind of barriers. Thank you!

The CPLEX documentation team assumes (not unreasonably, in my opinion) that if you are using the C++ API, you are experienced with coding in C++ (including compiling and linking). They do provide detailed information for how to compile using Visual Studio in a file (c_cpp.html) that ships with Windows version of CPLEX (at least it did with 12.1; not sure about 12.2). Things like runtime library and STL are familiar to C++ coders, and are not specific to CPLEX.

If you are just learning C++, you might consider switching to either Java or Python, both of which (in my opinion) are much easier to learn, and both of which require less screwing around when you go to compile a program.
