Category: Documentation Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Stone (jestone) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add 64-bit Solaris 9 build instructions to README Initial Comment: It would be helpful to add the correct 64-bit Solaris 9 build flags to the README file. I'm still working through problems with Solaris 10, but these flags seemed to work well for Solaris 9. One could replace the "-native64" with "-generic64" for maximum binary compatibility if necessary: (csh syntax env commands below) setenv CC cc setenv CXX CC setenv BASECFLAGS "-native -xarch=native64 -mt -xO3" setenv LDFLAGS "-xarch=native64" ./configure --without-cxx ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2005-09-29 08:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I believe there is no single set of "correct" options. E.g. why is it necessary to pass -xO3? I'm sure it will build fine without that; also, -O is documented to expand to -xO3. Likewise, why -mt? configure should figure out the necessary libraries itself, and -mt links with -lthread, when it really should link with -lpthread. -native is documented as synonym for -xtarget=native. This in turn isn't documented much, but if it included -xarch=native, I don't understand why you want that: it is documented as "The compiler chooses the appropriate setting for producing 32-bit binaries". IOW, I think that setting CC to "cc -xarch=native64" should be enough. Unfortunately, I don't have a Sun compiler on Solaris, so I personally use gcc instead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1306248&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
