Does the application built on HP-UX11.23 IA work on HP-UX11.31 IA?

Hi,

We have a complex application written on HP-UX 11.23 itanium platform. If we deploy the same executables at HP-UX 11.31 itanium machine, Will it be working fine? Here we are not rebuilding the code at 11.31.

The below HP link says that all the v1/v2 applications will be working at v3 also.

http://h20338.www2.hp.com/hpux11i/cache/458092-0-0-0-121.html

The details of application:
Written in C++, compiled with aCC
Uses the Oracle DB

Thanks and Regards,
Pratheesh.

Hello,

My exeperience shows that HP-UX 11.23
applications worked fine on 11.31,
exactly as the HP states.

I have not heard of any major problem
from customers either.

So, things look good for you.

Yes, your application should be forward compatible.
If you have a newer aC++ runtime patch on 11.23, you need to make sure you have at least the equivalent on 11.31.

Hi Dennis,

I am not building the exe at 11.31, so I don't require aCC kit at 11.31 right?

Shalom,

Answer: Probably.

It depends on your code, libraries used and many factors.

You must test on the platform to be certain.

Yes, all you need is to download the runtime lib patch: PHSS_38141
