XL C/C++ provides
an interactive utility,
xlc_install,
that walks you through a basic installation. You can
use xlc_install to do any
of the following:
- Install XL C/C++ V8.0 for Linux on
a clean system
- Install XL C/C++ V8.0 for Linux on
a system where XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for Linux is
already installed.
In this case, both compilers will use the XL SMP and
IBM MASS libraries provided with XL C/C++ for Linux.
(For information about installing XL Fortran V10.1 for Linux,
refer to the XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for Linux Installation
Guide.)
- Install an update on a system where XL C/C++ V8.0 for Linux has
already been installed.
In this case, use the procedure in Running the xlc_install utility to update a basic installation.
You should use the
xlc_install utility
to install
XL C/C++ as
long as
all of the following conditions apply:
- You are installing the compiler to the default location, which is /opt/ibmcmp/.
- You agree to remove any previously installed XL C/C++ components.
If any of these conditions does not apply, do
not use the
xlc_install utility. Instead,
see the procedures in
Advanced installation.
