GCC compiler on linux box

Hi All,

My main aim is to find the version of GCC compiler installed on linux box.

Case 1:

When i use gcc -v i get the foll. O/P

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux7/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-128)

case 2:

when i use cat/proc/version

Linux version 2.4.21-47.ELsmp (bhcompile@hs20-bc1-1.build.redhat.com) (gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-54)) #1 SMP Wed Jul 5 20:38:41 EDT 2006

So which version of GCC compiler been installed on linux box?? its 2.96 or 3.2.3??? or else am i looking at some other version???


TIA
Ashok.

gcc -v gives the version of gcc installed on your system

cat /proc/version gives information on the kernel and how it was compiled.
