Tip of the Day - Compiling in Solaris

Posted by Ron Valente Tue, 28 Aug 2007 17:27:00 GMT

I have a few tips that you might find useful in my experiences with building open source application under solaris 10.

On a default install solaris supplies the GCC tool-chain. You need to have the following two directories in your path. Put the following in your .profile.

export PATH=/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:$PATH

I have also had more success with working in the bash shell over tcsh. This might just be the fact that I am more familiar with bash.
