Re: OS requirements and gcc compatibility



I'm going far beyond my knowledge base, but would think that if you
use HP aCC for the whole thing, the runtimes for both C and C++ would
be present on the end-user's system(s). Now, if there are things
specific to GNU's libstdc++ on which you depend there might be issues.
That would take us back into discussion about "portable" code :)


Actually if we transfer your assumption to gcc and libstdc++ then it is a
known problem that the C++ runtime (libstdc++) is not compatible across
different versions. So if I compile my code with g++ v4.x then it won't work
with code linked using g++ 3.3.x for instance. The result can be a linked
file which could then crash at runtime. The same problem also goes on on
Windows which has resulted that one needs to build the code using all
possible Visual C++ compilers.
The question is why would aCC be different regarding compatibility? It's
probably not. Therefore it's most likely nessecary to use the gnu utils to
do the needed fixups to the files.

Actually I found that the users of my software wants a Itanium version of
the software. So back to the hunt for a machine. Does any of you know how
much a zx2000 machine 1 GHz or 1.4 GHz cost from new? I've seen a couple of
those on ebay.

Thanks in advance.
