HP 11.11 ansi compiler 3.45 + Rational Purify 2

[jonesq]

Hi,

I am currently running tests on HP11.11 64 bit machine against our certified product which was built on a 32 bit HP11.00 ansi machine.

Now the tests all seem to work ok apart from the tests that use Purify. Now the current version of purify we are using is Version 2002.05.00 HP-UX (32-bit). Here is a snip of the trace i receive when purify instruments:

Has anybody any ideas what might be the cause of this. I am suspecting that this is a problem with the installation of purify but I just thought maybe one of you guys has done something like this before

Ok,
Just to let anybody interested know, that the resoultion of this problem involved patching the hpux shared library dld.sl

 

[gchang10]

Would you please share the patch number? Thanks.

GC

 

[jonesq]

The HP patch that is required is ' PHSS_28871 1.0 ld(1) and linker tools cumulative patch'

 

[RanganathRamachandra]

ldd is not designed to handle dld.sl. dld.sl doesnt depend on any shared libraries.

did rational/ibm/purify folks tell you that PHSS_28871 is required to solve this problem?

 

[jonesq]

No I did not get the information from Rational. Our unix sys admin found the details. Apparently the version of purify and our HP shared libraries were incompatible. The patch solved our problems.

Hope this helps

 

[RanganathRamachandra]

for the record: rational folks said that this was a bug in purify 2003.06 (it was failing to patcht the latest dld correctly) and ti was fixed in purify 2003a.06.
