To uninstall the compiler from the default location, you
can use either SMIT or installp to
remove the compiler filesets.
If you attempt to remove a fileset that is required by another
installed fileset, the selected fileset will not be removed unless
its dependents are also being removed.
Using SMIT
The following steps illustrate
how to uninstall IBM® XL C/C++ for AIX®, V11.1 using
the SMIT interface:
- Run the command:
smit remove
- In the SOFTWARE name field, enter the fileset
names (wildcards accepted) separated by a space. If you have XL Fortran installed
in its default location, you must not remove any filesets which are
shared between the compilers. In this case, enter the following name
in the field:
vac.* vacpp.*
Otherwise,
enter the following name in the field: vac.* vacpp.* memdbg.* xlhelp.* xlmass.* xlsmp.*
To uninstall
IBM Debugger for AIX, V7.1,
you also need to enter the following name in the field:
ibmdebugger
In
the REMOVE dependent software? field, select yes.
Note: To
preview the uninstallation, set the PREVIEW only? value
to yes.
