AIX compiler

Hello everyone,

When I delivered source code to a third party for compilation on an AIX machine, they told me that the compiler does not support references to 'string' as function argument:

Code:

---

StringToDouble( string & inDbl )

---

is not excepted and should be changed to

Code:

---

StringToDouble( string inDbl )

---

This sound extremely weird to me, the more because IBM claims to use standard-compliant compilers on this machine.

Has anyone got an idea? Thanks!!

I'm pretty sure that is incorrect - but I don't KNOW.

I find that extremely unlikely.

Is the source exactly the way presented?

What compiler are they using?

I only ask because I'm almost certain that IBM all compilers for C and C++ have used the EDG back-end for several years.

Hello Soma,

What does the EBG back-end do? Is it to ensure standard compliance? I just want to know before I'll ask them the question.. thank you in advance!

I think it's this http://www.edg.com/index.php?location=c_frontend
