HP aC++ and
C compiler impacts summary
 |
| |
|
This impact class contains issues related to HP C and aC++ compilers, as well as the migration from cfront CC to HP aC++.
|
HP aC++ is available on HP-UX 11.0/11i systems on PA platforms, and HP-UX 11i on Integrity servers. The older cfront-based HP CC compiler product is no longer available on any HP-UX platform, and support for it was discontinued on August 1, 2001.
The C++ compilers use different name mangling schemes; hence, as you migrate your software from HP CC to HP aC++, all of the object files and libraries linked into an application must be compiled with aC++.
If you have not yet migrated C++ software from CC to aC++, you might encounter differences that require you to modify your source code.
- In ANSI C++, illegal constructs are no longer allowed. Other constructs are more clearly defined. Source programs may need to be modified.
- The template instantiation method has been redefined.
- The HP aC++ compiler does not support translator mode.
- The preprocessor for the HP aC++ compiler is implemented in the compiler itself. Command line options that support ANSI preprocessing are still supported, but those that supported K&R preprocessing in cfront are no longer recognized.
- In HP aC++, exception handling is "On" by default.
Note:
To include only aC++ and C compiler impacts when running
the scansummary and scandetail tools,
use the option:
+C ACC
To exclude these impacts, use the option:
-C ACC
