C/aC++ version date upgrading 6.24 --> 6.25

[Mikko Niskanen_1]

Aye,

Seems silly issue, but usually when upgrading compiler, the version string date is typically more recent - however, not with 6.24 --> 6.25 upgrade.

6.24 says:

root# aCC --version
aCC: HP C/aC++ B3910B A.06.24 [Dec 04, 2009]

After upgrade:

root# aCC --version
aCC: HP C/aC++ B3910B A.06.25 [Nov 30 2009]

Any thoughts/info?

I have a lower version in my server, seems the date is ok.

root#/opt/aCC/bin/aCC --version
aCC: HP C/aC++ B3910B A.06.20 [May 13 2008]

We finished A.06.25 in Nov and it became available on software.hp.com in Feb.
We made patches to the previous compiler after that, and it was available in Dec. Patches have shorter cycles.

Thanks, cleared this out. Closing thread.
