Is OpenSolaris going to include the Sun C/C++ Compiler?

Hi,
When Sun opensources Solaris, will it compile with GCC, or am I gonna need Sun's C/C++ Compiler / Forte to compile OpenSolaris?
There would be no point in releasing OpenSolaris without the tools to compile it. Has the Solaris team already tested the compilation of the OS with GCC? Or is Sun planning to release an open source / free (as in beer) C/C++ compiler version of their commercial tool?
On a side note, its disappointing that Solaris 10 includes compilers/interpreters for Java, Perl, Python, Tcl/Tk, but not for C/C++. I am using Solaris 10, R69, so I dont know if this has changed with later releases

There are rumours that the FCS release of Solaris 10 will include
gcc-3 in /usr/sfw/bin (apparently including amd64 support on
Solaris 10 x86).
Solaris 10 x86 b72 already includes several modifications to system
header files with gcc support (e.g. /usr/include/asm/*
or /usr/include/sys/va_list.h )
But I've no idea what they'll use to compile OpenSolaris source
code. Maybe the gcc-3 from /usr/sfw/bin, maybe not...

  • Hi, I am going to buy a new iMac desktop. I am going for the 3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel i7, 16 GB RAM and 2TB ATA Drive. I want to know whether I should go for the dual drives option i.e including the 256 GB SSD. I do a lot of 'heavy' media work. Brian

    Hi, I am going to buy a new iMac desktop. I am going for the 3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel i7, 16 GB RAM and 2TB ATA Drive. I want to know whether I should go for the dual drives option i.e including the 256 GB SSD. I do a lot of 'heavy' media work.

    by looking at the specs the laptop is better but if your not a gamer or graphics designer  then you most likly wont notice a difference in the performance at all so with that said a few downsides
    the processor is i5 the i7 processor is the better processor the graphics card has half the dedicated memory that the laptop has and the hdd compared to the solid state is not much of a difference unless you wanna move your computer all the time you wont need a solid state drive
    but like i said before if your not a gamer or graphics designer on your computer you will not notice the difference most likely

  • When I get to the login page on my macbook, I type in my password and it starts to load, but then the screen turns blue and it goes back to the login. What should I do?

    I was having some problems with my mac, safari and itunes was freezing alot. I have to force shutdown and when I tried to start up again i get to the login page, type in my password and it starts to load, but then the screen turns blue for a few seconds and it goes back to the log in screen. What should I do?
    Please Help!!

    Somewhat similar problem:
    Put in the password, hit enter, the screen goes blue for half a second, then goes back to login screen and carries on logging in as usual.  Drives me mad.  It doesn't happen with a fresh Lion installation, nor if booted into safe mode.  On the machine in question it also happens to new user accounts.
    I've removed all login items, including Startup Items and Launch Demons (pun intended) and Agents, I've compared system login plists with a fresh Lion installation - can't see differences.  I've removed Little Snitch and PeerGuardian (no more third party kexts).
    @Carolyn: I've done disk maintenance with DiskUtility and fsck and even DiskWarrior, cleaned caches, etc. etc.
    Any ideas would be gratefully received.
    Sorry for trying to hijack the thread (as it's not about Lion), but it seemed dead anyway.

  • How can I keep my iPod Touch cool in the sun?

    So I am going on holiday at the end of this week camping abroad where it will be hot and I am planning to take my iPod touch with me so I can access my music, emails, Facebook, Twitter, Skype etc. I am slightly concerned that iPod touch will be damaged by the heat as it can get very hot in the tent and car and also on the beach in direct sun. I had a heat warning the other week from leaving it on the table in the garden in the 30 degrees sun (yes that was silly of me!) It has a Zagg screen protector and a basic black skin. It is an iPod touch 4th generation. Is there any way of protecting from sunlight and heat? Also is there an app to download that will read the iPods current temperature and what is its maximum temperature it can withstand to?

    All you can do is keep it shaded and not in a unventilated space (like a car or tent) exposed to the sun.
    There is no temperature app.
    Hot temperatures can permently damage the iPod, especially the battery.

  • How to include the mysql-connector in a simple .jar file

    Well I started up with java again. Just messing around. This project I'm making now is just plain simple, I have a program thats going to read a table in a database from a server I have here at home. It works fine if I do like this: java javafil to run the file, it reads from the database fine.
    But when I made a .jar file out of it using this command: jar cmf manifest.txt javafile.jar *.class
    It won't connect to the database. Or it doesn't print out the rows in the table. So I thought I have to include the mysql-connector with the .jar.
    manifest.txt
    Main-Class: javafile
    Now what is an easy way to do this?
    This program is also going to be run from a computer that might not have the mysql-connector installed on the computer. Like a friend of mine wants to connect to the database and read it.
    I've tried to google "mysql connector in a .jar file" but I get tons of informations about the mysql-connector.jar instead of what I'm looking for.
    Thanks,

    Yeah but the other computer might not have that connector file on their computer. So is there like I way I can use it when it is in the .jar file? Thats kinda what I wanted. You cannot include another JAR in a JAR file. You however can extract it and put the classes in your JAR. Verify the license agreement if it is allowed. Although this is considered as a bad practice (poor upgradebility and maintainability).
    If you don't want to use the -cp parameter, then use the class-path entry of the manifest.mf of your JAR. You can also write a batch file with the whole JAR -cp command in a single line and run the batch file instead.
    Pluss, even though I have the right classpath in the environment variables set, it doesn't work for me either. So I guess it doesn't load the connector when running the .jar file.The classpath environment variable has nothing to do with running JAR's. Forget about it and use the -cp or -classpath parameter.

  • AE CS6 bug: Can't use any shortcut that includes the C in it

    A while ago I started having some issues In Illustrator CS6, where I couldn't copy and paste from one document/application to another, the issue later ported itself to AE and not much after that anything including the C key stopped working. For example I can't copy, pre compose or create a camera using shortcuts.
    After a lot of troubleshooting I was able to isolate a preference pane who was causing the Illustrator issue, I removed it and AI went back to normal, I assumed After Effects would be fixed too but unfortunately that's not the case, I still can't use the C key.
    I ran Onyx thoroughly, trashed AE's prefs, removed some recently acquired scripts, removed some login items and trashed those prefs also (I read a thread that mentioned those items could be causing odd behaviors).
    I carefully compared my setup against my laptop, which also has AE CS6 installed and working perfectly, I have the same scripts, the same preferences and the only login items not installed there are the ones that's are grayed out in my imac, so I can't delete them.
    If someone can help with this I'll be very grateful, I'm wasting a lot of time trying to solve this thing and I'm very used to using said shortcuts to increase my workflow.
    Thanks.

    I quit a few other components, a small utility called Shortcut (isn't that ironic?) and another one called MacAppBlocker,
    I still can't pre compose any layers using command-shift-c
    I was able to create a camera using command-shift-alt-c, after several tries, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.
    I was being able to copy and paste across different programs and layers all sorts of objects, UNTIL  I opened Illustrator and copied a path, then I pasted it into a solid in AE.
    The next time I tried to copy something else, my clipboard got stuck with the path from Illustrator, EVEN inside illustrator.
    Greg, as you can see from this thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4462265
    This is an aknowledged bug from Illustrator, but as I have discovered in the past few days it's affecting everything systemwise, what are the possibilities that the only shortcuts that are failing are those that contain the combination of command-c? And like I said, it starts missbehaving right after I copy a path in Illustrator, not before.
    Alright, after some further testing, here's what I found:
    I removed (completely deleted) from my computer a small piece of software called WD Quickview, right after I was able to precomp and create cameras in AE.
    I still have the copy/paste issue from Illustrator, right after I copy a path, the clipboard goes haywire system wide.
    The strange thing is that, such program, WD Quickview has been installed on my computer for over a year now and never had any trouble with it, moreover, I'm not entirely sure how am I going to be able to get into the drive that uses that program (WD force-install that thing with their new drives that come with a new unerasable firmware).
    Coincidentally, I haven't plug the drive at all this week, so perhaps the program went crazy when it couldn't find the drive?

  • Is there a flowchart describing gc behaviour of the Sun hotspot jvm?

    Given that garbage collector tuning is such an important part of application deployment it is surprising that the behaviour of the garbage collector implemented in the Sun JVM is so poorly documented.
    Our system is displaying behaviour changes that we don't expect and do not want and it we can't find enough information to predict how the garbage collector will behave under expected and changing conditions. This makes it impossible to select sensible parameters for our system.
    For example, we have included the -Xincgc option when running a weblogic6.0 server to reduce the size of the gc pauses. Monitoring the memory (both on the weblogic console and via -verbose:gc) we have small gcs happening quite frequently but after a couple of hours it switches over to full gcs and stays that way for ever after. The full gcs bring on the longer delays for garbage collection (typically around 5 seconds) every 5 minutes or so.
    Incidentally, we assume the small gcs are the incremental gcs performed on the old area but there is no way to distinguish those from the little scavenging gcs that are performed even without -Xincgc.
    The total memory used is quite modest (1/4 to 1/2 the size generally) compared to the max heap size and the old area and comparable to the new area.
    If there is a flowchart or uml activity diagram that describes the hotspot gc behaviour so that we could be a little more deterministic in our approach to gc tuning I would be most grateful to get access to it. This trial and error approach is very frustrating.
    There's some very useful information out there about the structure of the java heap and the meaning of the various options and even the garbage collection algorithms themselves but it is not sufficient to specify the behaviour of the specific hotspot jvm from Sun Microsystems.
    I liken it to having a class diagram describing a highly dynamic system but no interaction diagrams.

    I would also love to have a comprehensive explanation of garbage collection in Java. I'm still mystified by it in some respects.
    The author of this thread has obviously researched Java GC... don't know if this helps, but someone in another thread posted this link to a JDC Tech Tips issue concerning memory allocation and GC:
    http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/TechTips/2000/tt1222.html
    Also the links near the bottom may be worth checking out...
    There's something in that web page that I still don't understand and I think I will post a message about it soon.

  • Error in Including the Custom function in Custom schema ...

    Hi Experts ,
                   I developed a time custom Function through PE04 ,  Z_5RT and included in Custom Schema , ZM04, while executing in PT60 using the schema ZM04 an error coming . Any configuration required to include custom function in a schema .
    Thanks and regards
    Renjith MP

    You are just going to place the custom function in the 'Func' field of schema.
    Check the counry assignment, parameters & finally you have to activate the function. Check T52A0 for correct internal number.

  • How do I get the SUN Java plugin to work in Firefox 8.0 or Seamonkey 2.6?

    After a recent automatic upgrade of Firefox on my Xubuntu 11.04 system, the SUN Java plugin is no longer recognized by Firefox. I tried the old method of manually symlinking the corresponding library to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and various other directories that contained plugins, but to no avail. Other plugins like Flash work fine.
    Having the SUN Java plugin working is a must for me in order to be able to access my online bank, the Citrix server at my workplace, etc.

    Also,
    Exit Firefox and rename the '''pluginreg.dat''' in your profile folder and start Firefox again. This may help to reinitialize the plugins that Firefox recognizes.

  • How do I include the subject from an email in the body of a response email?

    First off, let me apologize if this is addressed somewhere else in the forum. I searched used many different variations on the theme, to no avail.
    So, yes, I am a former PC/Outlook user who made the "switch". For the most part, I couldn't be happier. However, one thing that I have been searching and searching for an answer on is: including all the info from an original email (i.e. subject, to, from, date) in a response email. Because wording this is a bit tricky, I am going to show what I mean by example.

  • Apple, I have an iPhone 5 and the purple tint in pictures is real and is going to be the most costly mistake to have changed the lens to a sapphire crystal lens. This is HUGE! Why did you fix what is not broken?

    Why, because some clumsy, careless humans couldn't stop scratching a less that 1/4 inch wide lens?  That is no reason for replacing the lens and pandering to their inability to handle advanced technology is not going to push the technology forward. Tossing out cheap cases like you did for the imagined iPhone 4 antenna "problem" will not fix this VERY real problem. I have been a loyal customer since 2005 and this, as stated in the title, could be your most costly mistake. Either your software engineers are going to have to compensate for the purple tint appearing in photos or you're going to sacrifice massive profits to physically replace the lens in every iPhone 5 you have sold and continue to sell. I've read that Apple customer service has tried to sweep this away by falsely claiming that the purple tint is "normal". It is absolutely not normal by any stretch of the imagination. Do not be silent Apple customers! Let the complaints pour like Niagara Falls or settle for the garbage that has been sold.
    My former iPhone 4 took better pics.
    I hope Apple didn't do the same with the pending iPad mini or this could turn into a maelstrom that even Steve Jobs would not have tolerated.

    It is pretty short so here is the entire text:
    Symptoms
    A purplish or other colored flare, haze, or spot is imaged from out-of-scene bright light sources during still image or video capture.
    Resolution
    Most small cameras, including those in every generation of iPhone, may exhibit some form of flare at the edge of the frame when capturing an image with out-of-scene light sources. This can happen when a light source is positioned at an angle (usually just outside the field of view) so that it causes a reflection off the surfaces inside the camera module and onto the camera sensor. Moving the camera slightly to change the position at which the bright light is entering the lens, or shielding the lens with your hand, should minimize or eliminate the effect.

  • How do you include the jre in your installs?

    This is a fall back and punt question.
    My organization develops desktop (Swing) Java apps. To deploy, we have an install program that first runs the JRE install that you download from Sun's web site, then we copy our own jars and data files and so on to the user system. This "two step" approach works, but it's clumsy and ugly.
    How do others deploy the JRE? Do you have your customers run the JRE install themselves, automatically run it within your own install, or do you mix Sun's files in with your own and copy them all at one time? If the last, what do you do about registry entries? (As in, worrying about overwriting entries if the user has already installed a newer version of java, etc.) Are there other complications?
    I guess I'll just try it and see what happens, but if anybody has some helpful hints I'd be anxious to hear them.

    Instead of including the JRE install file and running it you could just include the JRE directory with your install program. (C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_05 for example) This way you won't mess up any java installation that may already be on the target machine.
    Simply start your app with a batch or .exe file using a relative path to the java/javaw command. I use the following free program along with any standard installer:
