Hi there,

I have installed gcc12 in the AIX 7.2 environment.  However, we notice the the /opt/freeware/lib/libatomic.a etc library still link to gcc10.  

currently we have gcc8, gcc10 and gcc12 and gcc-10.2

How do we ensure gcc12 is being used? and the library link updated?

thank you

Best regards

Hi Kok,

Set 

export LIBPATH=/opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix7.3.0.0/12/pthread:/opt/freeware/lib64:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/lib:/lib/
Then use gcc12 --version, and/or export CC=gcc12

You can use gcc12 binary. And since libpath is set to gcc12 libraries, this will make sure you use gcc12 libraries.
I am using OS level 7.3. If you are in 7.2, then you might need to use powerpc-ibm-aix7.2.0.0 in the path.

If you just use gcc-12 binary instead of gcc if gcc's default version is 10, it should be enough.

(1) can I confirm there is no gcc-12xxxx now available for download?  or is there some where I can get it?

(2) if I were to use gcc-12 by running gcc, I have to set CC=gcc12?  this will allow me to run gcc for gcc12? or cc for gcc12?

To get gcc12

Kindly do dnf install gcc12*

>if I were to use gcc-12 by running gcc, I have to set CC=gcc12?  this will allow me to run gcc for gcc12? or cc for gcc12?

You need to set export CC=gcc-12, yes.

We are in the airgap environment and currently no dnf and without internet connection.  and I don't see any gcc-12xx.rpm in the website? do you mean it does exists and only dnf can get it?   can you advise any alternative way?

I am not referring to gcc12 itself, but gcc-12-3.rpm. the default metapackage

similar to gcc-10-2.rpm,  I am referring to gcc-12-3.rpm so it links gcc and libgccxxxx to gcc12 library.   from this AIX GCC multi version support improvements, I understand gcc-XX.rpm is a meta package for default gcc.
