Cross platform C++ compiling

karel nijs — Fri, 03 Mar 2006 04:23:34 GMT

Hi,

i've developed a concurrent server in C++ on the Linux platform.
Now i have to make it available on the HP-UX platform.

I'm using STL, pthreads and some other POSIX funtions...
On the Linux platform, compiling works out fine, on the HP-UX i'm experiencing some difficulties.

I think most of my errors can be solved by setting all compiler options right.
I'm using the book "Advanced Unix Programming", but it doesn't say anything about compiling with STL and such...

Is there some (online?) documentation available on using HP-UX. g++ online?

Our HP-Ux version:
HP-UX B.11.00 A 9000/785
gcc version:
gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)

Any help would be very appreciated...

Hi

Since Gcc is non hp

Hi Karel,

Are you trying to build a cross compiler using GCC ? or you are building separeltely on HP-UX ?

@steve steel: i can open your second link because i can't log in with my HP account there :-S

i'm not designing a cross compiler, i just want to compile my source files (.cpp), which work on Linux, on the HP-UX server.

I'm not allowed to install any patches

This is my Makefile:

# ****************************************

# Makefile for Separate Compilation Example
# Compiler: GNU C++ compiler
# Linker: /usr/bin/ld

# *****************************************************
# Parameters to control Makefile operation
# no errors -> -w

#CXXcommon = -lstdc++ -w -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -MM -xc++ -Dunix

CXXcommon = -fexceptions -lpthread -Wall -lstdc++ -features=castop
#-shared -fPIC
CXXFLAGS = -c
CXXFLAGSserv = -lpthread

# ****************************************************

server: server.cpp ASICclient.o ASIChost.o Connection.o Listener.o Networkfunctions.o ASICexception.o ASICserver.o Debug.o PSgen.o server.o network.h
$(CXX) $(CXXcommon) $(CXXFLAGSserv) -o server ASICclient.o ASIChost.o Connection.o Listener.o Networkfunctions.o ASICexception.o ASICserver.o Debug.o PSgen.o server.o

# server.o : server.cpp
# $(CXX) $(CXXcommon) $(CXXFLAGS) server.cpp

clean:
rm -rf *.o *.so

mrproper:
rm -rf *.o *.so a.out server

# ****************************************

as you can see, i've tried a lot of options (commented out) because everywhere on the Internet i find other options to set.
Actually, the situation has become more trial-and-error, that's why i asked for clear documentation online...
