determine compiler version on AIX

[sandyversant]

Hi,
I'm newbie on AIX. and I find it very difficult to deteremine C and CPP compilers on my machine. There are too many things like xlc, xlC, vac, lslpp, etc.
How do I find the versions for the compilers?

Try:

lslpp -L | grep c

or

lslpp -L | more
and look after any c complier software

Regards,
Khalid

% lslpp -l | grep xlC
xlC.adt.include 6.0.0.0 COMMITTED C Set ++ Application
xlC.aix50.rte 6.0.0.13 COMMITTED C Set ++ Runtime for AIX 5.0
xlC.cpp 5.0.2.0 COMMITTED C for AIX Preprocessor
xlC.rte 6.0.0.0 COMMITTED C Set ++ Runtime

% lslpp -l | grep vac
vac.C 6.0.0.0 COMMITTED C for AIX Compiler

Which is my C compiler version here? and which is CPP compiler version?

I don't use C compilers but IMHO It is version 6!?! as shown in the vac grep!
