+For the most part, Solaris is just another Unix variant as far as
+MySQL++ is concerned.  See README-Unix.txt for most of what you need
+to know to build and use MySQL++.
+
+MySQL++ is built atop the MySQL C API library, so you need those
+development files installed on your system before trying to build
+MySQL++.  The easiest way to do that in Solaris 10 is to pull down the
+GNOME System menu, go to Administration, and then to Package Manager.
+Search for "mysql5" and install those packages.  While there, you
+may also need to select the gcc and perl packages, if you haven't
+done that already.  Then when you go to build the MySQL++ library,
+give --with-mysql=/usr/mysql to the configure script; it won't find
+the development files in this nonstandard location otherwise.
+
+(Don't search for just "mysql" in Package Manager, as that will also
+bring up legacy MySQL 4.0 packages.  MySQL++ may build against 4.0
+still; it's been a while since we've tested it.  What is certain
+is that the examples won't run against 4.0 without modification,
+as they assume the availability of UTF-8 character set support,
+which was added in 4.1.)
+
+It's no doubt possible to use the official binaries from mysql.com
+instead, or to build from source.  We don't do that ourselves, though,
+and don't have reports from those who have, so we can't advise on
+how to do it.
