Compiling C++ codes using HP C compiler

[Aneesh Mohan]

Hi,

Can I know whether I can compile C++ codes using HP C compiler /opt/aCC/bin/cc. If so could you let me know the options need to use along with cc.

OS info:
Release: HP-UX B.11.31
Machine: ia64

# swlist -l product |grep -i compiler
ACXX C.06.20 HP C/aC++ Compiler
C-ANSI-C C.06.20 HP C/aC++ Compiler
COMPLIBS B.11.31 Compiler Support Libraries
PHCO_42454 1.0 Linker/Compiler/Unwind ENG Manpage Patch
PHCO_42463 1.0 linker/compiler/unwind Japanese manpage patch
PHSS_38155 1.0 bundled PA C compiler on IPF
PHSS_40631 1.0 HP C/aC++ Compiler (A.06.24)

Sample Program.

[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>more getting_started.cpp
#include <iostream.h>
int main()
{
int x,y;
cout << "Enter an integer: ";
cin >> x;
y = x * 2;
cout << "\n" << y <<" is twice " << x <<".\n";
}

Using cc it is not working

[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>cc getting_started.cpp
ld: Mismatched ABI (not an ELF file) for getting_started.cpp
Fatal error.
[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>

Using aCC it is working

[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>aCC getting_started.cpp
[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>echo $?
0
[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>ls -l a.out
-rwx------ 1 user12 tuxedo 175608 Jun 25 12:58 a.out
[user12->xxxx]/home/user12/cbs/tmp>

Sincere Regards,

Aneesh

No, 'cc' is a C compiler.

To compile C++ programs, you must use 'aCC'.

Hi Soumitra,

Thank you for your response ,

 the below is the comping statement and output  shared to me by developer , regarding "BS-2978.c not found" error message when I checked with him he said that can be ignored . He is claiming that this was working when he last compiled almost a year back in same box :(

Not hardly.

The cc driver doesn't know what to do with xmlWrapper.cpp and passes it directly to ld.  ld gives that ABI error.

Also, why do you have +DD64 but have libs like:

-lfml32 ... /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0.3/lib32/libclntsh.so
