It sounds like a compiler problem. Note that we don't officially support this compiler, we only support HP aCC 3.37 on PA-RISC. I would recommend to upgrade your compiler, it looks like it's quite old and HP released a number of patches since, see:

http://h21007.www2.hp.com/dspp/tech/...,00.html#11.23

Let us know if you get Ice to compile with these compiler patches!

Benoit.

thanks.

I've found that HP aCC defined a builtin type vector<bool, _Allocator > in its STL liberary, it can be disabled by complie option:
-D_RWSTD_NO_VECTOR_BOOL

and build continued...
