I need to find a download site for the C compiler for OpenVMS but i am having no luck.

I tried the HP site, my own CDs, i cant find one anywhere. any information would be helpful.

LOCK THIS, FOUND IT ON THE CD... D'oh!

I dont think there is md, i looked pretty hard. HP is pretty stern when it comes to their operating system.

ok, well there is, but since this is an enterprise solution, the enterprise software was needed, i did find the compiler on one of the CDs, its all good.

Good to know that there is support for GCC in OpenVMS though, it requires some hacking: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/faq/vmsfaq_020.html -> for anyone interested.
