https://www.linux.com – This month from CPUs based upon AMD's new Piledriver micro-architecture I have delivered results of compiler tuning on AMD's Open64 compiler as well as GCC bdver2 tuning. That initial testing from an AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core processor didn't show any big boost out of the "bdver2" target with the new BMI/TBM/F16C/FMA3...

Hi everybody. I installed codeblocks - a cross-platform IDE which requires a C/C++ compiler. The GCC GNU compiler was detected. But when I tried to run the program, many lines were displayed in the terminal window out of which one particular line was disturbing:can't find compiler executable in your search path(GNU GCC compiler)

Where is the gcc compiler located?

Hi, I have the following packages installed on my AIX server

xlC.aix50.rte 10.1.0.2 COMMITTED XL C/C++ Runtime for AIX 5.3 xlC.cpp 9.0.0.0 COMMITTED C for AIX Preprocessor xlC.msg.en_US.cpp 9.0.0.0 COMMITTED C for AIX Preprocessor xlC.msg.en_US.rte 10.1.0.2 COMMITTED XL C/C++ Runtime xlC.rte 10.1.0.2 COMMITTED XL C/C++ Runtime

Q1. Are the preprocessors actually a C compiler ?
