Hi Chris, I've just looked at the lines of the error being reported and compared to Qt lines and it seems to be the problem in reverse - our code is converting a GLchar* to a std::string via an assignment. This would suggest the case would need to be to the std::string char type or using a templated copy.
I don't have Solaris to compile against so I'll have to defer to you to find a workable solution. Robert.
