Jeff,
I have found in general that gmake files will not work with the native
make programs. The reason being that gmake adds more functions
to the make file, and there are no equivalent functions in make. So
if these functions are used, the makefile will never work for the
native make.
You can rewrite the make file to use standard make syntax, and then
you will get things to work. The problem then becomes a maintenance
nightmare, because every time the gmake file changes, you have to
re-port the file to the native make.
The best solution is to grab gmake from www.sunfreeware.com, and
install it somewhere as 'gmake', then invoke it with the path to gmake.
You may also find it useful to set the 'MAKE' environment variable to
point to gmake. That way, recursive gmake calls will use the correct
make, and not try to mix the versions.
Since gmake is available as a prebuilt binary for almost all systems,
(Solaris version is on www.sunfreeware.com), it's pretty easy to use
it. Just download it and go.
Regards,
--Carl

Subject: Library Linking Errors Using Sun Make Utility
Salutations,
We currently do not have the gnu make utility installed on out system,
which
is a SPARC 4500 running Solaris 2.7. We have attempted to use our native
make utility to link the provided sample code, but to no avail. It seems
that no matter what we try, the xercesc library will not link using Sun's
make utility. We are looking for any direction which would allow us to
create the samples and link in the necessary libraries without having to
install gmake. Please email back at [EMAIL PROTECTED] with any
suggestions, questions, or comments you should have. Thank you for your
time.
Sincerely,
Jeff Hladik
