Default A49 and R09 developer

It is my understanding that these two developers are old Agfa formulas for
Atomal and Rodinal.
They are alleged to be pre-war & that Calbe who make them are the former
photo chemical part of ORWO.

I know the present Agfa Rodinal, that it is a developer for sharpness and
has a very long shelf life. Is the R09 similar in that respect?

I have never come across the Atomal or the Calbe A49. What sort of developer
is this? Is it primarily for slow speed films or is it a fine grain
developer for general use?
