Compilers/Interpreters

Here is a partial listing of compilers available on the Computer Science Department UNIX systems:

 
   		cc       		 SUN C compiler

gcc Gnu C compiler

g++ Gnu C++ compiler

pc SUN Pascal compiler

f77 SUN Fortran 77 compiler

lisp-3-0 SUN Common Lisp interpreter

The path to the directory that contains the compilers and other executables should be in a path statement in your .cshrc file. The path statement allows you to invoke the compiler and other programs from your home directory simply by typing the name of the executable, the C-shell does the work of finding the binary file to execute. A typical path statement follows:

set path=(. /usr/local/bin /usr/bin/X11 /bin /usr/ucb /usr/bin /usr/lang)

Any other compilers on the system that are not listed above can be found in /user/lang or /usr/local/bin.

Disclaimer:
All compilers, and in fact most programs on the system are distributed on an as-is basis. There are no guarantees that the software will perform as described in the documentation.
