RE: OAT install on HPUX [50] [53]

John:

From some quick research I did, I believe the gcc 64 bit compiler is
separate from the
gcc 32 bit compiler on HP. Here is an excerpt from the URL below.

There are two separate GCC packages for PA-RISC, one that generates ILP=
32
code, and another that generates LP64 code. The 32-bit version is insta=
lled
in the /opt/hp-gcc directory, and the 64-bit version is installed in
/opt/hp-gcc64.

http://h21007.www2.hp.com/portal/site/dspp/menuitem.863c3e4cbcdc3f3515b=
49c108973a801/?ciid=3D2a08725cc2f02110725cc2f02110275d6e10RCRD

Based on this you need to make sure you installed the 64 bit version of=

gcc, if you want to compile in 64 bit mode. Then you just need to make=

sure your path is set to pickup the 64 bit version of gcc not the 32 bi=
t
gcc compiler.

Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure if I should get ahold of you direc=
tly
or not before this...

I wanted to use the HP (purchased) C compiler, but it didn't like the Z=
end
header files. I also wanted to use the 64 bit version of Informix, sin=
ce
that is what HPUX is now. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I have t=
hat
option either. Since I have already loaded gcc, do you know if there i=
s an
option to force it to generate 64 bit code? I've tried using the
"-mportable-runtime", but I get complaints that that option is incompat=
ible
with the "PIC" options.

Silly question - if I do finally get this driver compiled, will it work=

with either version of HPUX, or do I have to rebuild this on every serv=
er I
have Informix on? It would be nice if I could just copy over the binar=
ies
to other servers running the same version of Informix, but I'm getting =
the
idea that it won't work properly...

Thanks for your help!

John:

The file command shows that the pdo_informix.o is a 32 bit object,
but the informix csdk library you are using is a 64 bit version. I do n=
ot
believe
on HP you can mix 32 bit object files with 64 bit libraries.

Here is a quick example of what it look like to compile in 32 bit mode:=

> cc -c t.c
> file t.o
t.o: PA-RISC2.0 relocatable object

Here is a quick example of what it look like to compile in 64 bit mode:=

> cc -c +DS2.0 +DA2.0W t.c
> file t.o
t.o: ELF-64 relocatable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

Notice in 64 bit mode you must pass to the compiler "+DS2.0 +DA2.0W"

At this point you would have two options that I see to solve
your problem:
1. Download a 32 bit version of CSDK and link with the 32
bit version of the informix libraries. The 32 bit version
number will have a "U" or an "H" in the version. (do not use
a version with a "F" in it.)

2. Re-compile all of the php code again with the addition flags
"+DS2.0 +DA2.0W" to create a 64 bit version of pdo_informix.o

Hope this helps,

(Probably) last update on this...

At this point, I am still stuck on the "link" step referenced in my
previous
message. What I think is the key is that the "file magic" values are
different
for the drivers I am building and the Informix libraries installed with=

CSDK
3.
After running "make", I then run the "file" command on one of the
libraries,
and see:
Jackson2> file .libs/pdo_informix.o
..libs/pdo_informix.o: PA-RISC2.0 relocatable object

On one of the Informix libraries:
Jackson2> file ~informix/lib/esql/libifglx.sl
..../lib/esql/libifglx.sl: ELF-64 shared object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP6=
4)

At this point, I have no idea how to fix it. Neither do 2 of the local
programmers here, one of which has worked on C programs in our environm=
ent
for
years. If I use the loaded HP C compiler, it doesn't recognize the "Zen=
d"
include files. If I use gcc, I get the errors shown previously.

If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear them. Otherwise, I =
give
up
on this tool, which removes ~50% of the "wow" factor for my bosses when=
I
try
and tell them we should upgrade to 11.whatever.

Thanks in advance!
