TBB build on ia64

sthirumalai · ‎12-07-2007

Hi,

When i tried building TBB on ia64 system, i was facing an issue with ias assembler. This assembler is not available in the system. So i changed the assembler to "as" instead of "ias" inside the file build/linux.gcc.inc.

Because the "as" assembler is available in my system and "ias" is not available. It is working now and i am able to compile and build the TBB code. Please let me know, if anything is wrong here.

Using 'as' instead of 'ias' shoudl be fine. Actually, the most recent developer update already contains this fix. Some other issues seen on some Linux IA64 systems were also fixed there; so consider taking this snapshot.
