Dear ROOT and HP/aCC users, HP has recently released the 1.09 version of the aCC compiler (and the 1.09 aCC runtime). This compiler fixes an important number of bugs compared to the previously stable version 1.06. However, ROOT compiled with 1.06 does not run with the 1.09 runtime (due to changes in operator new[]() and operator delete[]()). I've fixed the problems and built a new version of ROOT 1.03 with aCC 1.09. This new version is now available from the ROOT web site at the usual place: http://root.cern.ch/root/Version103.html However, it turns out that the 1.09 runtime is not backward compatible with the 1.06 runtime. Since we've not enough resources to support both 1.06 and 1.09 we advice everybody to get the aCC 1.09 from the HP support website and to upgrade their machines. At CERN most Atlas and CMS machines have already been upgraded. Cheers, Fons. -- Org: CERN, European Laboratory for Particle Physics.
