[Live-devel] Compiling on solaris 64 bit -maybe fixed

[Michael Skaastrup Nielsen]

Hi

I will just reply to my own mail.

Figured it out. I am attaching the config.solaris inline. I've just added -m64 three places to instruct compiler and linker to make 64 bit files.

bash-3.00#file software/live/mediaServer/live555MediaServer
software/live/mediaServer/live555MediaServer:   ELF 64-bit LSB executable AMD64 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available

config.solaris

COMPILE_OPTS =          $(INCLUDES) -m64 -I. -O -DSOLARIS -DSOCKLEN_T=socklen_t
C =                     c
C_COMPILER =            cc
C_FLAGS =               $(COMPILE_OPTS)
CPP =                   cpp
CPLUSPLUS_COMPILER =    c++
CPLUSPLUS_FLAGS =       $(COMPILE_OPTS) -Wall
OBJ =                   o
LINK =                  c++ -m64 -o 
LINK_OPTS =             -L.
CONSOLE_LINK_OPTS =     $(LINK_OPTS)
LIBRARY_LINK =          ld -o
LIBRARY_LINK_OPTS =     $(LINK_OPTS) -64 -r -dn
LIB_SUFFIX =                    a
LIBS_FOR_CONSOLE_APPLICATION = -lsocket -lnsl
LIBS_FOR_GUI_APPLICATION = $(LIBS_FOR_CONSOLE_APPLICATION)
EXE =


As i said earlier I am not a developer so this is based on works-for-me info.

Kind regards

OK, so you (or someone else who's knowledgeable about 
compiling/linking for Solaris) is going to have to figure out what 
changes should be made to the "config.solaris" file in order to 
properly compile/link applications for 64-bit Solaris.

I'm not a Solaris expert (and don't have a Solaris machine available 
for testing anyway), so someone else is going to have to figure this 
out for us.

Hi. I will try to dig deeper.

Contacting SUN right now.

If anything turns up I will inform you via this list.

Thank you for taking time..

If anybody else on the list has anything to add, please do not hesitate.

Kind regards
