installation of the ANSI C compiler

[hi_5]

I need to install a ansi C compiler on hpux 11i, will this installation cause a reboot of the host? And is there a documentation on how to do this??

Hi,

I don't think it takes a reboot. Here is a link to the installation instructions:

You need to install one of the following bundles.

B3899BA B.11.11.04 HP C/ANSI C Developer's Bundle for HP-UX 11.i (S700)
B3901BA B.11.11.04 HP C/ANSI C Developer's Bundle for HP-UX 11.i (S800)

This doesnt need a reboot.

Did you download a .depot file from HP Software?

Installation Steps
Login as root.
To install the C/ANSI C Developer's product bundle, as root use swinstall as follows:
# /usr/sbin/swinstall -s $PWD/B3899BA_11.11.depot B3899BA

They are not specifying "autoreboot" in the command line so I would assume there is no reboot reqired.

Ansi/C compiler doesn't need a reboot of the server. You can try these steps:
1) Get code words from HP for unlocking the software
2) Install code words with swinstall - Actions - Add new code word
3) Mount application CD #1
4) Start swinstall and browse CD drive
5) Select Ansi/C ompiler and mark for install. From actions menu, select install.

Installation Instructions

Where B3899BA would change based on the bundle number
(workstation vs. server)
and, 11.11 would change based on the OS version.

Installation Steps

Login as root.

To install the C/ANSI C Developer's product bundle, as root use swinstall as follows:

# /usr/sbin/swinstall -s $PWD/B3899BA_11.11.depot B3899BA

Where B3899BA_11.11.depot matches what was downloaded.

how do I install the code words from swinstall?
i go to actions, but i don't see anything such as "add new code" . this question is for shuju wilson

For the last question:
1) Mount your application CD (#1) first.
2) Start swinstall and select CD_drive in your target selection screen.
3) Now the softwares which doesn't reuired codewords will be shown on the screen.
4) Go to Actions and select add new code word.
5) Once added, you will see Ansi/C in the list.

Again, the codewords added to the system can be viewed from this file:
/var/adm/sw/.codewords

If you want, you can edit this file and add your codewords manually, but carefully! by following the pattern.
