Hi,

I have to get a build of my product on AIX 5.3 (powerpc) because of
backward compatibility concerns. The product builds fine on such a
system using conventional gmake. However, cmake fails to identify the
xlc/xlC compilers correctly and reports them as broken. What is the
way to fix this?

Could I force cmake to recognize the compilers correctly in some
manual way. I tried using CMAKE_FORCE_C_COMPILER and
CMAKE_FORCE_CXX_COMPILER but it didn't work. I am not sure of the
arguments to pass either. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Can you post the errors that you are getting? There is no way to help with the information you have posted. You need the compiler to work, forcing it will just cause trouble later.

We test on two different AIX machines nightly, so the compilers should work.
