	Thanks for the responses. I went with
	something like this.

In general, the <iostream> style include is the newer, namespaced way of
using
std libs - it should put everything in the std:: namespace - as opposed to
<iostream.h> that normally shouldn't.

So if you're missing 'iostream' and want to create it from 'iostream.h', as
Patrick suggested, you should consider doing something like:
#ifndef __IOSTREAM__
#define __IOSTREAM__
namespace std {
#include <iostream.h>
}
#endif  // __IOSTREAM__

(though make sure you don't use the same headerguard, ie '__IOSTREAM__' as
in
your iostream.h!)

I seem to remember from the HP-UX c++ compiler (aCC is it?) that it supports
namespaces in general, but not 'std'... maybe this has changed now -
otherwise
you're going to have similar problems with all std include files.

you might find you've got different versions of c++ headers installed with
aCC,
both ansi and RougeWave - see if there's something like
/opt/aCC/include/ansi or
/opt/aCC/include/rouge
and there's probably a symlink for 'std' pointing to one of them. Have a
look at
the different include files - you could always try changing library
implementation.

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the Xalan C++ sauce, and I've currently
not
access to HP-UX, otherwise I might have been of more help...
All I can remember really is that I had some issues when compiling
Gnu/opensource stuff on HP-UX11.00 using aCC - many of them related to the
'standard' (ha!) libraries and include files.
Not very encouraging maybe... but gcc/g++ sits nicely on HP-UX, and you can
get
it pre-built from HP's shareware distribution site (can't remember the URL,
though I'll dig it out if you want). That will get you decent c++libs as
well.
Won't work if you have to link aCC-built code against Xalan though...

RE: Xalan port to HPUX11 - iostream


Hi,

I have had the same kind of problem when I was porting Xalan C++ v0.30.0 on
Compaq Tru64 Unix (Previously DEC Unix or OSF1) with the compiler cxx v6.2.
The problem was with <cassert>, <climits>, <cstdio>, etc ..

There is three alternatives to solve the problem:

1) Include <iostream.h> instead of <iostream>

2) Same but with conditional include like that

#if defined(__GNUC__)
#include <iostream>
#elif defined(__DECCXX)
#include <iostream.h>
#endif

The __DECCXX is defined when I compile with cxx on DEC.

You could do the same for HPUX11. You have just to find out what should
replace __DECCXX.

3) You can write a new file in the xalan/src named iostream. This file
should have the following content:

#ifndef __IOSTREAM__
#define __IOSTREAM__
#include <iostream.h>
#endif  // __IOSTREAM__

This is the solution I have provisionaly choosen. It allows to change
nothing in all the source and to make the compilation works fine.

Remark:

You can customize the compilation for your platform like that:

#if defined(_MSC_VER)
#include "VCPPDefinitions.hpp"
#elif defined(__GNUC__)
#include "GCCDefinitions.hpp"
#elif defined(__DECCXX)
#include "DECCXXDefinitions.hpp"
#endif

The DECCXXDefinitions.hpp is a new file derived from GCCDefinitions.hpp and
adapted for the DEC platform.

You could do the same for HPUX11.

Patrick Glur
