Updates to the compiler are supplied as PTF packages.
Before these PTF packages can be used to update the compiler, they must be
downloaded and uncompressed, and a .toc file must be generated.
Use the following instructions to prepare the update package for installation:
Note: You
must be logged in as root or have superuser authority.
- Download the desired PTF package (for example vacpp.111.aix.mthyear.ptf.tar.Z)
into an empty directory.
- Restore the compressed file and extract the PTF filesets from the downloaded
package:
- To uncompress the file, use the command
uncompress package_name.tar.Z
- To unpack the resulting tar file, use the command
tar -xvf package_name.tar
- Use the command inutoc directory_name to generate a
.toc file in the same directory as the unpacked filesets.
The following example shows the steps to prepare the package,
vacpp.111.aix.mthyear.ptf.tar.Z,
located in the new directory,
/compiler/update/ for installation.
cd /compiler/update
uncompress -f vacpp.111.aix.mthyear.ptf.tar.Z
tar -xvf vacpp.111.aix.mthyear.ptf.tar
inutoc .
