Evening,

After a little more fiddling I have determined for sure that something
isn't in a table it should be in.

MOIRA::CSMELOSKY$ run dka0:[vms$common.sysexe]decc$compiler

(I just did that for a test...doing a full reinstall won't help.   How
would I manually toss it in to DCLTABLES?)


The installation should add "CC" (the C Compiler) command to DCLTABLES.EXE.
Make sure that you have only one DCLTABLES.EXE in SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB].


Reinstalling the compiler THIS time worked.   No idea why it didn't the other 2 times...

You can not simply RUN the C compiler executable because it will look for
command information via CLI$routines/SYS$CLI callbacks.   You *might* get
away with $ MCR DKA0:[VMS$COMMON.SYSEXE]DECC$COMPILER not giving you the
stack dump traceback but gawd only knows what qualifier defaults you will
be given.

When you have the C Compiler installed, try:

$ CREATE HELLO.C
#include <stdio.h>
main() { printf("Hello World\n");}
^Z     <== Ctrl/Z to exit
$ CC HELLO
$ LINK HELLO
$ RUN HELLO


FYI, You also require a PAK for the DEC C compiler.
