Complier Issue in AIX 5.3

[Vivek J.]

Hello

I have AIX 5.3 machine and want to install Ruby and mechanize gem.

I have downloaded ruby-1.9.2-p180.tar.gz and

Trying to run this :


cd ruby-1.9.2-p180
bash-3.2# ./configure
checking build system type... powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
checking host system type... powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
checking target system type... powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl.exe... no
configure: error: in `/test/ruby-1.9.2-p180':
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details

----------

My AIX box says

bash-3.2# lslpp -L all | grep xl
xlC.aix50.rte 10.1.0.2 C F XL C/C++ Runtime for
AIX 5.3
xlC.cpp 9.0.0.0 C F C for AIX
Preprocessor
xlC.rte 10.1.0.2 C F XL C/C++ Runtime


Which C Compiler I need to download ?

What we the next steps to install Ruby and mechanize gem.

Thank you.

Though the folk I have met,
(Ah, how soon!) they forget
When I've moved on to some other place,
There may be one or two,
When I've played and passed through,
Who'll remember my song or my face.
