Oops - the syntax is "ln -s <source> <new target>" so
use "ln -s /usr/local/bin/gcc /usr/local/bin/cc" instead.

Hi,
Try "ln -s /usr/local/bin/cc /usr/local/bin/gcc" and make sure
that /usr/local/bin is ahead of /usr/ucb in your path. This
will let the make program find gcc even though you specified
CC=gcc. This might be considered a hack, but it worked for
me!

Subject: Trying to build with gcc on Solaris ...
Hello - I'm attempting to build the current DBI on
Solaris 2.8. We did not purchase the C development option pack,
so we're relying on gcc.
How do I get the Makefile.PL script
to generate a Makefile appropriate for gcc??
I tried the following command line ....
$ make CC=gcc
gcc -c -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\"1.15\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.15\"
-KPIC -I/us
r/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS Perl.c
gcc: unrecognized option `-KPIC'
gcc: language depend not recognized
gcc: Perl.c: linker input file unused since linking not done
/usr/bin/perl -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris -I/usr/perl5/5.00503
/usr/perl5/
5.00503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap
/usr/perl5/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap DBI.xs >xs
tmp.c && mv xstmp.c DBI.c
gcc -c -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\"1.15\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.15\"
-KPIC -I/us
r/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS DBI.c
gcc: unrecognized option `-KPIC'
gcc: language depend not recognized
gcc: DBI.c: linker input file unused since linking not done
Running Mkbootstrap for DBI ()
chmod 644 DBI.bs
LD_RUN_PATH="" cc -o blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBI.so -G DBI.o
/usr/ucb/cc: language optional software package not installed
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target
`blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBI.so'
...... but all brute-force change attempts to the Makefile itself
have fixed one problem while creating two or more new problems.
The cleanest/easiest approach would be to get
Makefile.PL to do the right thing based on gcc.
Any clues?
Thanks much in advance.
