No. Unfortunately there is no 64 bit version of the Carbon API. To port Clean we would have to reimplement most of the Object IO library. This is too much work. So we would have to make a 32 bit version and/or a 64 bit command line only version. >I also use a SPARC running Solaris 2.10. I see that the >SPARC version of Clean 2.2 was built for 2.8.

Our SPARC computers are running Solaris 2.9, so I can't do that yet. All the binaries used by Clean that I looked at are dynamically linked, so I don't know what the problem is. Could you send me more information on this problem ?
