Patch Name: PHSS_16585 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X HP aC++ runtime library components (A.01.18) Creation Date: 98/11/11 Post Date: 98/11/23 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.01 10.10 10.20 s800: 10.01 10.10 10.20 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.CORE-SHLIBS ProgSupport.LANG-MIN ACXX.ACXX ACXX-ECOM.ACXX-ECOM Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_16585 Symptoms: PHSS_16585: 1. RWCString::readLine(,true) doesn't set failbit PHSS_15043: 1. eofbit in istrstream not set correctly 2. Performance problem with STL vector 3. STL times should be replaced by multiplies () 4. Linking with libcma causes SIGBUS at runtime PHSS_14262: 1. Loop in shared library initializer from shl_load and threads PHSS_13388: 1. Excessive memory usage with , long compile times too 2. iostream library doesn't perform new/delete correctly 3. RWTPtrSortedVector::index() doesn't return npos if not found 4. RWTValHashDictionary must be replaced by RWTValHashMap 5. Memory leak with threads and libstd with string 6. const_iterator not implemented in container classes PHSS_12609: 1. string(, string::npos) throws length_error vs. out_of_range 2. Error 641 on some RW source files if -DRW_NO_STL 3. MEMBER TEMPLATES: needs more typename fixes 4. Excessive memory usage with , long compile times too 5. tools.h++ headers: Future error 641 need to be fixed PHSS_10113: 1. This patch is required for the libraries to be compatible with the A.01.04 release of the aC++ compiler. The results of using incompatible libraries are unpredicatable. PHSS_10053: Slow startup times for shared libraries that have been produced with aCC. PHSS_9527: 1. Bus error in rwtool templates with -z and threads 2. Error 243 with RW template collection PHSS_9201: Error messages from dld.sl will show the incorrect location of dld.sl. They will show "/usr/lib/dld.sl" instead of "/usr/lib/aCC/dld.sl". PHSS_8324: 1. Supply core libraries for aC++ revision A.01.00. PHSS_8177: Programs compiled with aC++ will not execute unless a special dld.sl is present on the system. Defect Description: PHSS_16585: 1. RWCString::readLine(,true) only sets eofbit upon EOF. Using the ios::operator void*() does not return false in this case. The following is never false. while (f.readLine(,true)) PHSS_15043: 1. When using istrstream to read numbers or a character string at the end of the buffer, the setting of the eofbit is inconsistent. With numbers eofbit is not set. 2. the std library container vector performance problem. The execution time for insertion grows more than linearly with number of elements, as required by standard. 3. me clash for "times" defined in system header and non-standard conforming C++ standard library header . 4. Executables linked with libcma receive SIGBUS before reaching main(). PHSS_14262: 1. dld processes initializers with all signals turned off. Some applications stop responding to anything but kill -9: because dld is in a critical section with all signals turned off and static initializer locks a mutex twice causing deadlock. PHSS_13388: 1. aCC consumes much memory for small lists or other small containers this does not conform with the ANSI DRAFT. 2. The version of libCsup with patch PHSS_12609, A.01.07, changed operators new[] and delete[] to no longer call the non-array operators. This change exposed a problem in libstream where there is a mismatch in strstream and streambuf where operator new[] and then operator delete is called. 3. The function RWTPtrSortedVector::index() doesn't return npos as documented, if it is < first element. It returns 0 instead. If in between elements it returns lower_bound. 4. The RogueWave documentation for tools.h++ template RWTValHashDictionary template should mention that it has four parameters. 5. Memory leak when using with either threads library, libcma or libpthread. This problem will occur on 10.20, 10.30 and 11.0 with various combinations of the two leaks. 6. The following aCC program can't be compiled: #include int main() { map myMap; map::const_iterator i = myMap.begin(); double a = i->second; // double a = (*i).second is ok! a = a * 2.5; return 0; } $ aCC main.c Error 185: "main.c", line 11 # Left side of '->' requires a pointer to class; type found was 'class const_iterator'. double a = i->second PHSS_12609: 1. basic_string(const charT* s, size_type n, const Allocator& a = Allocator()); Creates a string that contains the first n characters of s. s must not be a NULL pointer. The effects of this constructor are: An out_of_range exception will be thrown if n == npos. 2. Some RW sources/includes are giving the 641 (future) error. Here is an example one: Error (future) 641: "/opt/aCC/include/rw/xvdlist.cc", line 493 # Undeclared variable 'advance'. Did you forget to make the variable dependent on the template type parameters so it would be looked up when templates are generated? advance(); ^^^^^^^ 3. MEMBER TEMPLATES: needs more typename fixes. 4. aCC consumes much memory for small lists or other small containers. 5. Undeclared variable, future error 641, issued. PHSS_10113: 1. A.01.04 compatability PHSS_10053: The problem is that the dynamic loader is repeatedly applying relocations in a shared library, that should only be applied once. This leads to a noticable performance degradation. PHSS_9527: 1. The library was destructing an object before it had been initialized when using threads. 2. A class that inherits from a Roguewave collection template classes could not call certain functions defined in the base class. PHSS_9201: The appropriate string in the source had not been updated when the special dld.sl was created. PHSS_8324: 1. The core libraries for aC++ A.01.00 are not included in the HP-UX core releases. PHSS_8177: aC++ requires a different linker and dld.sl because of special fixups that are needed to support the C++ language.

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHSS_16585 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_16585.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHSS_16585.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_16585. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHSS_16585.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHSS_16585.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
