You would do well to install GCC. There is a gcc ( old and musty ) in /usr/sfw/bin on Solaris 10 but you can get a very up to date set of tool from Blastwave. Just do this ( as root ) : (1) go somewhere "safe" on your filesystem. # cd /tmp (2) fetch the pkgutil tool : # /usr/sfw/bin/wget http://download.blastwave.org/csw/pkgutil_`/sbin/uname -p`.pkg (3) install it # pkgadd -d /tmp/pkgutil_`/sbin/uname -p`.pkg (4) remove the package from /tmp # rm /tmp/pkgutil_`/sbin/uname -p`.pkg (5) fetch the catalog # /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil --catalog (6) install GCC 4.5.1 # /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil --install gcc4 (7) Set your PATH to allow you to run gcc # PATH=/opt/csw/gcc4/bin:$PATH # export PATH done. If you want to install Sun Studio 11 or 12 I think you can download them but then Oracle has made it impossible to patch them. Well, not impossible, just hell. So while the Sun studio compilers are vastly superior in many ways they are not worth the money anymore unless you follow the development bible written by Daryl Gove. ( an awesome book by the way ) anyways, use gcc. -- 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
