Installing Open64 4.2.1

Open64 4.2.1 supports i386, x86_64 and IA-64. This compiler is available in both binary and source-code form for  different target machines.

open64-4.2.1-0.src.tar.bz2  

This package contains the compiler's source code. It's machine independent.

open64-4.2.1-0.ia64.tar.bz2, open64-4.2.1-0.ia64.rpm  

These two packages contain all the binary code for IA-64 machine including pre-built library. The compiler is built on an IA-64 based system with kernel 2.6.18 and glibc 2.3. The OS is Debian 4 on IA-64. The compiler is built twice for releasing. The first stage is built by Open64 4.2 at '-O2', then we use the compiler built in the first stage to build the release compiler at '-O2'.

open64-4.2.1-0.i386.tar.bz2, open64-4.2.1-0.i386.rpm  

These two packages contain all the 32-bit binary code for i386 machines.  The compiler is built on an IA-32 based system with kernel 2.6.18 and glibc 2.3. The OS is Debian 4 on IA-32. The compiler is built twice for releasing. The first stage is built by Open64 4.2 at '-O2', then we use the compiler built in the first stage to build the release compiler at '-O2'. The 32-bit libraries are built on the same system by this compiler. The 64-bit libraries are also included in the packages.

open64-4.2.1-0.x86_64.tar.bz2, open64-4.2.1-0.x86_64.rpm   

These two packages contain all the 64-bit binary code for x86_64 machines.  The compiler is built on an x86_64 based system with kernel 2.6.18 and glibc 2.3. The OS is Debian 4 on x86_64. The compiler is built twice for releasing.  The first stage is built by Open64 4.2 at '-O2', then we use the compiler built in the first stage to build the release compiler at '-O2'. The 32-bit libraries are built on the same system by this compiler with '-m32' flag'. The 64-bit libraries are built on the same system using this compiler.
