Hello -
My company just acquired an HP Itanium server; a perl 5.8.8 depot file
was installed on it and perl-v indicates:
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for IA64.ARCHREV_0-thread-multi-LP64
(with 33 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
Copyright 1987-2006, Larry Wall
Binary build 817.1 [268662] provided by ActiveState
http://www.ActiveState.com
Built Sep 19 2006 13:50:51
I need to install a variety of modules to support other applications;
some of these modules require compilation. The UNIX admins installed an
HP compiler bundle on the server; there are two compilers in that
bundle; 'which cc' points to the first one
/opt/aCC/bin/cc:
HP C/aC++ for Integrity Servers B3910B A.06.15 [May 16 2007]
/usr/ccs/bin/cc_bundled:
HP aC++/C for Itanium(R)-based systems B3910B A.05.50 [May 15
2003]
I have always heard that "you should compile modules using the same
compiler that built perl". perl -V shows: cc='cc' ... ccversion='B3910B
A.05.55'. Does that mean the same exact version? More to the point, can
I safely compile modules using one or both of the compilers above? Does
it matter which?
Thanks in advance.
Paula
