[Met_help] MET installation problem

[Litta A J]

Dear sir,

Thank you very much for your kinfd information.. But I didn't see any C++
compilers in IBM system. I have asked to my system administrator about the
C++ compiler. He told that, C++ compiler is not there and he don't know how
to install. I am attaching the list of all C compilers in my system..I'll
contact to IBM people,with the help of my guide, from where we have
purchased the system...
