We are working on building AOO for Solaris on Sparc and x86.
There are people out there who would like to see official
builds for these platforms. For us (and our customers), this would also
be a great step forward, and we're eager to do what we can to work on
this.
I too want to see official Solaris support. I currently use self built
3.4.1 on both Sparc and i386 Solaris 10.
* Is something to be said against moving to GCC on solaris?
I'm not against gcc per se. I am against any program that requires a
particular compiler, if the code is well written it won't matter which
compiler is used and there should no talk of "moving to ...".
To link with gcc c++ objects CC now has a flag to use gcc hashing:
$ CC -compat=g ...
Unfortunately only i386 but I think that's mostly where OO is used.
