open64 and dragon tool

[SunitaChandrasekaran]

Hi

I am trying to install open64 and its tool dragon on to the machine.
Half way through the installation process is
code: openf90 -dragon -ipa -O2 BT.f
message : /usr/bin/openf90: cannot execute binary file

so i tried using

code : file /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ia64-open64-linux/0.16/driver

message: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ia64-open64-linux/0.16/driver: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, IA-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (user shared bits), not stripped

and
code : ldd /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ia64-open64-linux/0.16/driver
message : not a dynamic executable


Does it mean that the file is a 64-bit dynamically executable file?
I have a 32-bit machine!!

Can the file run on this machine?

Open64 is a compiler and optimizer for Intel 64 bit processors. If you do not have an IA64 processor, you will not be able to run programs compiled for IA64 machines.

actually there is openf90 which is a link, not a file or a directory which is creating the trouble.
can something be done to this binary executable file?

openf90 is the Fortran compiler bundled with the Open64 package. As such, it is a program intended to run on systems with IA64 architecture.

okay..thank you for the message

[SunitaChandrasekaran]

how about a cross compilation on a IA32 machine to produce IA64 binaries?
do you think it is a wise thing to do ?

To what end?
There certainly is no harm in doing so, but the important question is, what are you trying to acomplish?

Hi


There is a significance in using open64 to gcc..

It is difficult to penetrate with gcc when you have to deal with the RTL.

So this open64 intercepts at a good stage in the compiler to deal with the RTL and produce bytecodes for CIL. The required files can then be generated efficiently.

That is the purpose of this installation.

Well I have a hold over an IA64 machine, so hopefully things should work out this time.
