Hi Michael,
I think my question may still be valid - that is, why was this posted for
Solaris/Sparc? What are the reasons behind it?
This is not a criticism from a Solaris expert (which, alas, I am not) but a
genuine wish to know what is happening
on my system. I assume that knowing the reasons behind writing/posting this asm
code may help me further analyse/understand the
problems I experience.
Thanks,
Barak

Please respond to Subject: Re: v8plus Solaris
instructions, asm code and atomic add
log4cxx-user
Hi Barak,
the asm code concerning Solaris was posted on this mailing list, several months
ago. The problem is that of log4cxx developers have no competence with Solaris.
It's the reason why Solaris is not officially supported, unless someone decides
to join to our team ...
