Description:
I'm compiling mysql versus VisualAge C/C++ 6.0 on AIX 5.3TL7.  The configure completes normally, but, on the make, there is an error on item_sum.cc.

How to repeat:
# export PATH=/usr/vacpp/bin:/usr/vac/bin:$PATH
# export CFLAGS="-I /usr/vac/include -I /usr/include -ma"
# export CXXFLAGS="-I /usr/vac/include -I /usr/include -ma"

Please, try to revert the order of includes in CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to:

-I /usr/include -I /usr/vac/include

and check if this will help.

It drops in the same place.

# make clean
# export CXXFLAGS="-I /usr/include -I /usr/vac/include -ma"
# export CFLAGS="-I /usr/include -I /usr/vac/include -ma"

Strange. Please, send the results of:

Strange. I remember it helped with newer VAC version (9) in the same situation. 

As you do not have math.h in /usr/vac/include, please, try with -I /usr/include only.

Well, I think you found my issue.  The include fileset had not been installed.  I re-ran the sequence and installing the below fileset and it went just fine.  I think I'll create a bundle, so, c++ completely installs in the future.

# lslpp -w /usr/vacpp/include/math.h

So, I assume that some ommisions in your VAC environment were the real reason for this problem.

Yes the header files for the c++ sections of code were missing.  The client compile doesn't require these, and, the server compile will go a little further but fail.  It might be helpful to add some of these notes to the INSTALL source documentation.  I think vac and gcc are the most popular compilers on AIX.

Actually, I'd say it is a bug. If some important header is missing in the system configure should be able to determine that.

This file is part of the language standard and can therefore be expected to be available. There is no need to verify that major parts of the language standard are implemented by the compiler.
