PGF77/PGCC Server

F77, C++ and ANSI C for 32-bit and 64-bit AMD64 technology and IA32 processor-based servers.

The PGF77®/PGCC® Server is PGI's F77, C and C++ compiler bundle for multi-user systems and workgroups. PGF77/PGCC Server includes multi-user network floating licenses for the F77, C and C++ compilers, for PGDBG® OpenMP Linux graphical debugger (not currently available on Microsoft* Windows*) and for PGPROF® graphical OpenMP and MPI parallel Linux performance profiler (command-level only on Windows).

The PGF77/PGCC Server includes all features from both PGF77 Server and PGCC Server compilers and tools. PGF77 Server, The Portland Group's native parallelizing/optimizing FORTRAN 77 compiler Intel Pentium II/III/4, Intel Xeon/Xeon-64 and AMD Athlon/AthlonXP/Opteron processor-based 32-bit and 64-bit Linux and 32-bit Windows (NT/2000/XP) servers, provides the features, quality, and reliability you demand for development and maintenance of advanced scientific and technical applications. PGCC Server includes The Portland Group's native parallelizing/optimizing C++ and ANSI C compilers for 32-bit x86 (AMD* AthlonXP*, Intel* Pentium* 4 and Xeon*), 64-bit AMD64 technology (AMD Opteron*) and 64-bit IA32 EM64T (Intel Xeon-64) processor-based systems. The C++ compiler closely tracks the proposed ANSI standard and is compatible with cfront versions 2 and 3. The PGCC Server compilers are native parallelizing C++ and ANSI C compilers. All C++ functions are compatible with Fortran and C functions, so you can compose programs from components written in all three languages.

The PGF77/PGCC Server compilers and OpenMP Linux debugger/profiler allow multiple users to compile, debug and profile high performance parallel F77, C or C++ applications on any compatible computer networked to the system on which the PGI compilers are installed (a network-floating license). PGF77/PGCC Server allows debugging and profiling on up to 16 processors or threads while allowing multiple simultaneous users of the Server products. Executables are constrained to use at most 16 processors/threads. There are also no parallel runtime fees of any kind -- the executables produced by PGF77/PGCC Server compilers can be executed on any compatible system regardless of whether the PGI compilers are installed.
