Hello,
Hello all,
I'm attempting to build Boost filesystem as a shared library on HP using aCC(I have no choice, I have to use this compiler). Here is machine and compiler info:
HP-UX B.11.11 U 9000/800 (tb) aCC: HP ANSI C++ B3910B A.03.63
I've also to develop on HP/UX 11.11 PA-RISC. The aCC deployed on PA-RISC is a verry old (version 3.x) and is not conform to the current c++-standard (aCC-3.x has problems with templates). I got boost never compiled on this platform with aCC-3.x. I use gcc (depot from HP-website) and it works very well. If you can switch to Itanium-HP/UX you can use aCC-6.x which should work with boost. regards, Oliver
Thanks for the info...I guess ;-) Follow-up question, which I think the answer is NO but I'll ask it to be sure. If I built libboost-filesystem on gcc on this platform and produces a shared library, would I be able to use that library from my own shared library that is compiled with aCC-3.x? My thought here is NO because: 1) no binary compatibility between GCC shared library and the aCC compiler/linker 2) aCC would still need to compile the Boost header files that are referenced on my own shared library that links with the gcc compiled libboost-filesystem Thanks in advance for the help, Ed
