Warning in relink: (Bundled) cc: warning 480...

[Peter Godron]

Muthu,
can't quite see the connection between Eric's problem and your link.

Eric,
as you have gcc installed already, have you tried link-pointing your cc to wherever gcc is installed?

[Muthukumar_5]

Yes peter :) (Hope I've reverted with comments on that.)

You can install gcc from,

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gcc-4.0.2/

and try it out.

PS: Are you getting only warnings or errors in compilation?? If warnings then you can remove the compiler tags and try. When you are getting error then that is a problem.

Hi Eric,

I dont think installing "gcc" will help. Oracle supports only HP's Ansi-C compiler.

I've already put gcc in PATH but nothing has changed...

Muthu,

"PS: Are you getting only warnings or errors in compilation?? If warnings then you can remove the compiler tags and try. When you are getting error then that is a problem."

Only warnings. What are the compiler tags?

[Arunvijai_4]

These warnings says about you DONT have Ansi Complaint C Compiler, only have bundled C compiler. I dont think changing a compiler flag will help with bundled C compiler.

Ok, I think the question is:

Where can I find an Ansi C Compiler for HP-UX 11.0?

PS: I remember that I installed gcc because of a previous linking issue and, at the time, I've just ignored the warnings...

Best Regards,

Eric,

May be you can leave out this problem since it's warning right. Problem is started on getting ERROR only. Hope you can turn of warnings.

Hi Eric

Sometimes, warnings should not be ignored as it may lead to support problems. You can file a support call with Oracle on this issue.

[Muthukumar_5]

Oracle is compiled with -A -Z ... +O2 tags. However cc is not having supportivity to use the tags. If Oracle is not going to work with native cc complier then it is a problem. Warnings in the thread are seeming to be less priority. You can call to support centre or wait for yogee to analysis.

same kind of error during sendmail installion in hp-ux.

Hi Eric,

It is apparent that, you should install Ansi C compiler to get rid of these warnings.

Probably, you can close this thread once you log a support call.

[Muthukumar_5]

Same warnings in,

you have to remove +O2,.. -A option from cc compiler. You will not get the warning surely.

Again to give more reference,

http://www.darklab.net/resources/hpux-mailinglist/1263.html

is saying all about this. Warnings are not needed to be worry. Change compiler tag. That is it.

Forms and reports (oracle) are not like other products which should be compiled with these flags. If you omit the flags, dont expect correct compilation. Also, http://www.darklab.net/resources/hpux-mailinglist/1263.html

talks about Installing/performance oracle 9i on HP-UX.. It didnt talk about Forms and reports..

hi Eric,

I think for Forms and Reports, you would definitely require the ANSI C compiler!

Below some excerpts from what i have found on metalink:

===========
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:12112118006470810127::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,153657.1,1,1,1,helvetica

Explanation
-----------
The ANSI C compiler was not upgraded as part of the OS upgrade since it's a separate product on HP-UX.

Oracle does not require the ANSI C compiler for installation, so the native HP C compiler in /usr/ccs/bin can be used instead.

If using Pro*C/C++, then the ANSI C compiler must be upgraded to the proper HP-UX 11 version before the install.

4. When does Oracle need an ANSI C Compiler?
For installing Oracle, or when relinking Oracle executables, the bundled C compiler is sufficient. In this case, the ANSI C compiler is not required.
Examples are the oracle, exp, proc (the ProC precompiler) executables.

The ANSI C compiler is required for compiling ProC and OCI programs, such as *.pc files.

Maybe you should create a service request on metalink.

Workaround do exists (in case you already have it on other servers). Think about it...

good luck

Section 6 of Metalink Note 147227.1 (2º link provided by Yogeeraj) says it all:

"...When a bundled C compiler is used for
relinks, it will give warnings whenever an ANSI C compiler feature (option)
is encountered. These warning can be ignored, as the exectable will be
relinked regardless."

Thank you,

Eric Antunes

Yogeeraj,

I didn't understood this part:

"Workaround do exists (in case you already have it on other servers). Think about it..."

In case I would have the Ansi C installed in other servers? I don't.

Anyway, with ou without warnings, everything works fine...

Thank you,

Eric Antunes

[Yogeeraj_1]

hi,

I was thining about a case whereby you had a similar environment which already had the ansi c compiler, you could just install it there and then move it to the production environment.


but this does not make sense if you have to apply patches or upgrade

also you could just install the evaluation version for now...

sorry.

I don't know how much it costs but it would then be preferrable to purchase it!

good luck!

kind regards
yogeeraj

If you changed your mind to buy aCC compiler then problem is with the prize. I hope it is very high. You have to analyse the economy need as well.
