I noticed that there is very little reasonable data in the .comment section of my output binaries on snv_134. This probably has been around for a while but I just felt like asking finally.
Have a look at this : $ uname -a SunOS aequitas 5.11 snv_134 i86pc i386 i86pc $ $ grep "^#pragma ident" /usr/include/sys/va_list.h #pragma ident "%Z%%M% %I% %E% SMI" Thus I get very little out of mcs for this : $ file libiconv.so.2.5.0 libiconv.so.2.5.0: ELF 32-bit LSB dynamic lib 80386 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped $ mcs -p libiconv.so.2.5.0 | sort -u %Z%%M% %I% %E% SMI acomp: Sun C 5.10 SunOS_i386 Patch 142363-03 2009/12/03 as: Sun Compiler Common 12.1 SunOS_i386 Patch 141858-04 2009/12/08 ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.11-1.1689 libiconv.so.2.5.0: What I *expect* to see is something like this : $ file libiconv.so.2.5.0 libiconv.so.2.5.0: ELF 64-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARCV9 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped $ mcs -p libiconv.so.2.5.0 | sort -u @(#)ctype.h 1.33 99/08/10 SMI @(#)ctype_iso.h 1.1 99/08/09 SMI @(#)errno.h 1.16 99/07/26 SMI @(#)errno.h 1.20 00/02/14 SMI @(#)feature_tests.h 1.18 99/07/26 SMI @(#)isa_defs.h 1.20 99/05/04 SMI @(#)langinfo.h 1.10 94/11/21 SMI @(#)nl_types.h 1.14 00/11/20 SMI @(#)stddef.h 1.16 99/08/10 SMI @(#)stddef_iso.h 1.1 99/08/09 SMI @(#)stdio.h 1.78 99/12/08 SMI @(#)stdio_impl.h 1.8 99/06/10 SMI @(#)stdio_iso.h 1.2 99/10/25 SMI @(#)stdio_tag.h 1.3 98/04/20 SMI @(#)stdlib.h 1.47 99/11/03 SMI @(#)stdlib_iso.h 1.3 02/10/10 SMI @(#)string.h 1.24 99/08/10 SMI @(#)string_iso.h 1.2 99/11/09 SMI @(#)time_iso.h 1.1 99/08/09 SMI @(#)va_list.h 1.12 99/05/04 SMI @(#)wchar.h 1.34 04/08/10 SMI @(#)wchar_impl.h 1.3 99/07/26 SMI @(#)wchar_iso.h 1.2 99/11/10 SMI acomp: Sun C 5.8 Patch 121015-07 2009/04/22 ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.8-1.302 libiconv.so.2.5.0: $ Simply speaking as a developer/application porter that uses Studio I wonder if there will be data in those "pragma ident" sections at some point? -- Dennis Clarke dcla...@opensolaris.ca <- Email related to the open source Solaris dcla...@blastwave.org <- Email related to open source for Solaris _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
