The fix is to build a fresh set of gcc "fixed" headers:

# cd /opt/sfw/gcc-3/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-solaris2.9/3.3.2/install-tools/

# cat > mkheaders.conf
SHELL=/bin/sh
SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR="/usr/include"
OTHER_FIXINCLUDES_DIRS=""
FIXPROTO_DEFINES="-D_XOPEN_SOURCE"
STMP_FIXPROTO="stmp-fixproto"
STMP_FIXINC="stmp-fixinc"
^D

# ./mkheaders

I have written a shell script for automating some of our repetitive activities. I want all my colleagues to use my script and do the activities automatically by just running the script.

But I do not want them to see the code. Is there a way we can generate something like an executable from the script, so that they have access only to the executable and they cannot see the source code.

I do not want to give just the execute permission. If I do that then I need to store the script in one common place. Since the script needs to be run in many servers then I need to copy the script in all the servers which is duplication and maintanence is difficult and every body will try to change the script.

Instead, I want to generate an executable and give that to my colleagues so that they can run it wherever they want and I alone can maintain the source code.

I am using HP-UX 11.11

thanks in advance for your help.
