At IU, what C++ compilers are available on the UITS central systems?
C++ compilers are available on all of the
UITS central system Unix computers and clusters
at Indiana University (Big Red, Quarry, and the
Research Database Complex). All systems have
g++, the GNU project's C++ compiler. Each also
has at least one vendor-specific compiler, usually called
c++ or CC.
The g++ compiler is a script that calls
gcc with options to recognize C++. It processes input
files through one or more of four stages: preprocessing, compilation,
assembly, and linking.
The g++ compiler recognizes source files that use the
suffix .C, .cc, or .cxx;
preprocessed files use the .ii suffix.
For more about g++, c++, or
CC, see the appropriate man page on the system
you will be using.
