I am trying to install perl-5.6.0 on hpux.
It is choosing cc as the c compiler. I don't know why. If I install an
earlier version
of perl, it chooses gcc.
I have an env-variable named CC which is set to gcc .
My $PATH first lists the dir which contains "gcc" executable, and then the
dir which contains "cc" executable. e.g; my gcc is in /opt/gcc/bin ; my cc
is in /usr/bin,
my $PATH is "........:/opt/gcc/bin:....:/usr/bin:......."
Any idea why perl installation chooses cc as the c compiler?
Another Q is if I override the default of cc and set gcc as compiler
instead, I am getting errors.
My setting are :
cc flags : -D_HPUX_SOURCE -Aa -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include
ld flags : -Wl,+vnocompatwarnings -L/usr/local/lib
The error I get is :
*Initialization*:1: missing token-sequence in `#assert'
I can't compile the test program.
(The supplied flags or libraries might be incorrect.)
You have a BIG problem. Shall I abort Configure [y]
Please advise.
