Is there any actual documentation, or am I being old-fashioned? Charles -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of David Crayford Sent: Thursday, May 5, 2022 7:20 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: New IBM Open C++ compiler The new clang/LLVM C/C++ compiler has been announced https://community.ibm.com/community/user/ibmz-and-linuxone/blogs/robert-barrington1/2022/04/05/next-generation-of-ibm-cc-and-fortran-compilers-av. I suppose it was wishful thinking to expect it to be free as IBM have commit a lot of resources to making it happen. It's only available to customers who have a license for the XL C/C++ compiler. If you use C/C++ I highly recommend this compiler. It's modern supporting all the latest language standards and is a significant improvement on the xlclang/xlclang++ compilers previously shipped. It supports AMODE 31 for interop with legacy code whereas xlclang was 64-bit only. If you are interested in a free C/C++ compiler then Rocket have open sourced their gcc/glibc z/OS port. It's a cross compiler so you build on a Linux or Windows machine. AFAIK, glibc is fairly complete but is missing pthreads. https://github.com/ambitus/gcc https://github.com/ambitus/glibc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
