[comp.sys.dec] compiling g++ under VMS

kjh@visual1.jhuapl.edu (Kenneth J. Heeres) (11/15/90)

I am trying to compile g++ on VMS.  I am assuming that I need to
install the gcc compiler first.  If this is not true then please
tell me and ignore the rest of this message.

I downloaded the vms tar file from uunet.uu.net and sent the
files to my vms system.  I followed the install instructions.
They make no mention of any library requirements.  I linked
a "hello world" compiled with gcc with the vaxcrl library. 
when I tried to run it I got an access violation.  What am
I doing wrong?

thanks

ken

You can get prebuilt GNU cc via anonymous ftp from umigw.miami.edu, and
a prebuilt g++ from mango.miami.edu.  I don't remember exactly where
they are on those systems, but if you look around you should be able
to find them.
