- Andrew -------- Original Message -------- Subject: EPICS Base @ HP-UX: Volunteers wanted Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2006 15:27:06 +0100 From: Ralph Lange <[email protected]> Organization: BESSY To: EPICS Core Talk <[email protected]> Hello everyone, trying to resolve the situation with an outdated C++ compiler crashing on the EPICS sources, I found out that BESSY doesn't seem to be able to support testing Base on HP-UX any longer. We are in the middle of converting to Linux, the software on our few remaining HP-UX machines has been in frozen state for a while, so asking for an update of a compiler to test a software that is not going to be used on that platform ... sounds a lot like asking someone to waste time to be able to waste more time. I know we intended to keep HP-UX supported for 3.14 and I know there are others still using HP machines, so I'm not feeling too happy with this issue. In any case I would like to keep the HP-UX configuration files around for a little longer. Well, I'm throwing the ball high up in the air and start running .... maybe one of the KEK colleagues (the only remaining HP users as far as I know) is able to catch it?! I'm definitely willing to continue helping with ideas and suggestions, if someone takes over. No question. But without a current system and compiler I'm not able to compile nor test. Sorry - Ralph
