Boost Version 1.37 available for HP-UX 11i aC++ and GCC compilers on Integrity servers
Version 1.37 continues support of
HP's aC++ compiler (aC++ A.06.17 and higher) and introduces support for
GCC 
(GCC 4.2.1 and higher), for HP-UX 11i on Integrity (HP-UX 11i v2 and higher).
Standards deliver savings
Boost's 
high-quality and powerful C++ libraries help software developers speed time-to-market for new applications and reduce application maintenance costs. Ten Boost libraries are already included in the
C++ Standards Committee's 
Library Technical Report (
TR1 
) (PDF) as a step towards becoming part of a future C++ Standard. More Boost libraries are proposed for the upcoming
TR2 
.
While Boost delivers its compilers for a number of Linux and Windows platforms, HP-UX 11i on Integrity is the only supported UNIX® operating system, giving HP-UX 11i developers an edge in developing for multi-OS environments.
The latest releases of the compiler, debugger and tools deliver features that improve performance optimisation, debugging, and data usage reporting. Updated releases are available for:
- HP C/ANSI C compiler and HP aC++ compiler: Enhanced support for debugging optimised code
- HP WDB debugger (HP-supported version of the Gnu GDB debugger): Improved batch mode memory debugging
- HP Caliper performance analyser: Ability to collect and report system data usage
- HP Code Advisor (cadvise) analysis tool: Enhancements that detect potential performance issues using the Performance Advisory diagnostic messages
Application and software developers need powerful and flexible integrated development environments (IDEs) running on low-cost platforms and reducing time to deployment. Mission-critical business applications demand platforms that offer performance, scalability, high availability, highly productive system management, and bulletproof security.
Because application needs differ, HP offers a wide range of flexible, rich, and very powerful tools and development options, and works with various tool providers so developers can work cost-effectively and have the flexibility to develop anywhere for deployment on the HP-UX 11i operating system.
