where can I find C++ Compiler on HPUX

[Abdul Majeed Lardhi]

I have B3901BA bundle from HP (B.11.11.06 HP C/ANSI C Developer's Bundle for HP-UX 11.i (S800))

And I compile a lost of programs using cc and make , but now I need to compile c++ code. DO I have to install another bundle from HP for c++ or I use the same Ansi compile with specific options ????

Hi Abdul Majeed,

You can use B3913DB - available here for servers:

http://www.software.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=B3913DB

And B3911DB available here for workstations:

http://www.software.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=B3911DB

HTH,

AFAIK, cc will compile C++ as well as C.

You can also use gcc :

HP other C compiler is called:
HP aC++ compiler, the product is B3913DB For S800

Hi all

the error we are getting from the Oracle Application generation is "sh: aCC:not foun"
this means it need "aC++" complier !!!

But Fred Ruffet said that we can use ansi/c "cc" to compile c++ but how ??

I said I *believe* cc can compile C++, but I need a confirmation.

aCC is probably given as the compiler in Makefile. But that doesn't mean you should change it : program may be created for this compiler and may not compile or run with another.

What is this program you are trying to compile ?

Fred is wrong. The ANSI/C compiler will compile ANSI C and K & R C. It does not speak C++. aCC speaks C++ and ANSI C (but will not compile K & R C).

Your other option is the Gnu compiler which is free and can be downloaded from any of the HP-UX Porting Centre's.

[Victor BERRIDGE]

Install the HP aC++ Compiler
Version A.03.15 on the server. This version of the compiler is a patch to the base release A.03.
13, obtain this from HP.

All the best

Hi Abdul,
We have given gcc a try but problem arises you get from oracle a We only support what has been certified by us and so we have installed B3913DB HP aC++ Compiler, I mentionned the patch version because it was an answer of oracle when we said why do you require such product and no say so when you buy it (I mean since when do you buy a product then learn it requires to be installed other components that are not free... because I call that robbery...)
But then oracle say its a HP problem that in fact with the patch they mentionned it should work etc... We have been trough relinking and not finding the libraries etc... and opted to acquire aC++ and End the debate...

All the best
Victor
