Need VOC about SCCS support in Sun Studio

Hello, Sun Studio users!
We need Voice Of Customers (VOC) about SCCS support in Sun Studio.
The idea is to make Sun Studio editor and project system aware of SCCS,
and to integrate SCCS support in Sun Studio, so that users will be able to
select a file, and perform the following SCCS actions:
* Check Out (sccs edit)
* Check In (sccs delget)
* Undo Check Out (sccs unedit)
* View History (view SCCS history in as text)
* Show Revisions (view SCCS history in explorer)
* Compare Revisions (view differences in filemerge)
Please, send your replies to me or add to this thread.
If you think it is not a good idea - this is also important information.
Thanks in advance,
Nik

Subversion support for Sun Studio 11 IDE

Hi there,
has anybody succeeded in using the Sun Studio 11 IDE with the Subversion SCM system? I searched the web for informations about this but didn't find anything.
Thanks for your help!
Jens Siebert

Jens,
The subversion module in netbeans is based on a current version
of netbeans (I'm not sure exactly which one). It very unlikely to work
with the Sun Studio 11 IDE because the Sun Studio 11 IDE is based
on a much older version of NetBeans (3.5.1 with modifications).
The next major release of Sun Studio should use the current
NetBeans release. It should work with the Subversion module.
Unfortunately, we won't be releasing for quite a while.

Help needed! about apple support

I just got an i pod video 30 gig as a birthday present. and i have no bill for it. if, by some misfortune something goes wrong with my i pod,will i be able to ship it to the US for a replacement if i register the product? i live in south africa but the pod was purchased by my parents at the singapore airport.

My ipod was purchased in the US when my brother was on holiday over there. I live in the UK and when it went wrong a month ago I went onto the apple support website, filled in a form, Apple sent me an empty box for which to send the ipod off in, a week later a new one came back. Simple and no hassle at all.
Basically you should be ok.

Need info about HDD support for Satellite 2800

Hi!
What max HDD can I use in Satellite 2800-200
Thanks .

Hi there,
the biggest model of the 2800 series was delivered with a 30GB HDD. But I think maybe you can try a 40 or 60GB HDD.
The bad thing is that I cannot promise you, since the machine is a pentium 3 platform and I don´t really know how big they drives can be..
The most secure way is to buy a external USB-HDD and just put the data on it, but thats just my opinion.. ;)

Can't use profiler (Performance Analyzer) in Sun Studio 12, please help!!

Hi,
I've mandriva 2008 (linux), and I've installed Sun Studio 12.
At the first start of Sun Studio a message appear:
Warning - could not install some modules:
     ATD Sun Studio Core - The module named com.sun.tools.swdev.toolscommon was needed and not found.
     dbx Debugger UI - The module named com.sun.tools.swdev.toolscommon was needed and not found.
     ATD Performance Analyzer Actions - The module named com.sun.forte.st.mpmt/1 was needed and not found.
     ATD Performance Analyzer Actions - The module named com.sun.tools.swdev.toolscommon was needed and not found.
All other modules works correctly, but unfortunately I need the profiler (performance analyzer) because I want to speed up my C++ code. What can I do???
Please help!
NOTE:
I've added to my .bash_profile this lines:

cd /usr/bin
ln -s /bin/id ./idbut when I start Sun Studio 12 I get again the error on the module.
So I've tryed to reinstall everything (yes, also OS) but it (partially) solves only the problem installing with batch_installer. Infact now I can use batch_installer but at the end of installation it say:
[root@localhost tmp]# ./batch_installer --accept-sla
Installation failed: cleanup successful.Anyway SunStudio 12 still works, but the main problem about the module of performance analyzer is still here...
how can I solve this? Please help!

Patches for Sun Studio 12 Update 1

Dear all,
I have recently installed Sun Studio 12 Update 1 on an x86 system and have some questions pertaining to the required patches. According to my understanding of the text on the homepage for SS12U1 (http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/ss12u1_patches.jsp) it should be possible to download these also without a service contract, but this does not seem to be possible. The SunOS 5.10_x86: Microtasking libraries (libmtsk) patch 120754-6 distributed with the SS12U1 does not seem to be sufficient for 64-bit OpenMP programs. For correct functionality of the compiler patch 120754-7 appears to be needed.
My question thus is if it should be possible to access the required Sun Studio 12 Update 1 patches without a service contract?
Any help regarding this is highly appreciated.

Tthe recent lockdown of all patches by Oracle, making them available only under a support contract, makes the issue of Sun Studio 12.1 patches discussed here quite important. If 120754-07 is required for proper SS12.1 functionality, then users without support contracts must not upgrade their systems to more recent Solaris versions, as SS12.1 will have to be re-installed, and the 07 patch will be unavailable. When will SS12.2 or SS13 (?) be released? If Oracle really wants to make some money, they will never release any further SS updates, thus requiring customers to buy contracts to get the darn patch.
Check these prices for SS support contracts:

Sun Studio 12 Update 1 Premium Sun Software Service Plan 1-year

Sun Studio (12,1) is unable to find a supported version of the Netbeans IDE

Hi all,
We're working on upgrading both the hardware and software on our application currently, and part of this involves upgrading our compiler to Sun Studio 12.1. I downloaded
SunStudio12u1-SunOS-SPARC-pkgs-ML.tar.bz2
from the Sun website and we installed it into the following location on our server:
/opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1
I successfully compiled all my code using the compiler, however, when I try to launch the debugger by typing ./sunstudio in the 'bin' directory, I get the following error:
{opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1/bin}./sunstudio
Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of the NetBeans IDE.
Sun Studio requires a NetBeans IDE version 6.5.1 with NetBeans C/C++ module (cnd
2) enabled.
Sun Studio looks for a valid NetBeans IDE installation in the following order:
1) Location specified with --netbeanshome command line option
2) At /opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1/netbeans
I have seen references to executing 'prepare_system' on forums while I was trying to investigate this, but when our sys admin folks try to execute the command, it does not work (command not found). They've mentioned that they expected a prepare_system script in the directory where we untarred the downloaded sun studio tarfile, but it is not there:

Any advice appreciated on how to get the debugger working. Ideally, I'd prefer not to uninstall / reinstall if at all possible as we're about to start system testing our executables, and I think a reinstall would require more unit teting and delays to our project (yikes!). But any input would be appreciated here.
Thanks,
Brendan.

Hi David,
First off - thanks for the response. I do have some follow up questions if you don't mind though:
1. When you say the install is corrupted, do you suspect
- the file I downloaded from the website either was corrupted, or was not the correct file for my platform
- the procedure used to install the software was incorrect
- something else
2. Is there a logfile that the sun studio install creates which would indicate an error during the installation procedure? I'm sure our admins who performed the install would have shouted if an error was logged... but on the offchance that the installation does not 'shout loudly' for some errors, I'd like to see a log of the error. At a minimum, I'd expect it to say why the install failed, and what we need to modify to ensure a successful install next time 'round.
3. I successfully compiled my code using the C compiler from the install. My unit tests also look good... does this suggest that the install was at least a partial success, and would you suspect that my recompiled executables are reliable, despite the fact that I cannot launch the IDE?
4. Today, one of our admins telnetted to our unix server - not via exceed by the way, but he did try the following test:
- set his display env variable (he knew he would not get a display however)
- executed the sunstudio script
He did not get the netbeans error, and the process appeared to be running (as I mentioned, without a display) until he killed it. I've asked if they can repeat the test using an exceed session. I thought there may be something on his $PATH that I did not have - unfortunately this was not the case (although, he may have access as 'root' to something that I require to launch the IDE). My question is, would you expect this behaviour if the install was corrupted?
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Brendan.

Help needed with evaluating Sun Studio Creator

I am evaluating Sun Studio Creator as a platform for developing JSF applications. I really like its WYSIWYG editor, but strugging with how I would fit it in my environment. I currently use a Maven generated EJB layer running on JBoss.
1) Ideally I would like to package my EJBs and WAR into one EAR and deploy it on JBoss. Is this possible through the IDE? I would still like to keep my Maven scripts for building the EJB layer (basically I like Maven lot more than Ant and I am not willing to give up its functionality). How would I go about doing EJB development using Maven in parallel with front-end development using JSC?
2) Does Sun Studio Creator somehow lock me into its framework? I see that the code it generates uses custom tags such as the Web UI tags. I have not seen any good documentation justifying why I should be using these custom tag libraries and framework - giving up my freedom to experiment with other approaches. For that matter, I was not able to find a "user guide" on the tag libraries at all - only the javadocs, which are more like reference material. Can someone point me in the right direction?
3) If I wanted to use just the standard components specified in the JSF specification, which tool bars should I limit myself to? The "Standard" toolbar? Also does it mean that I will need to manually rip out the auto-generated elements such as Web UI tags, framework specific backing beans etc. Would a "seasoned" JSC user even think of using the tool in this way?
I would really appreciate any guidance you can give me on this topic.
Thanks.

Before I forget, I want to pass on the following feedback from my evaluation. Hopefully some of these items can be addressed in the upcoming release. Please note that I am not a JSC power user, so some of the impressions were made during a very limited evaluation period.
1) It seems that JSC was designed to allow only the use of its framework/components such as the Web UI components etc. It seems pretty hard NOT to use the JSC framework/components and introduce other frameworks such as Tiles. I would prefer if JSC took a more flexible approach of also supporting other ways in which people may want to develop JSF applications.
2) Support for a robust page templating mechanism. I really don't know how to create large complex web sites without introducing something like Tiles.
3) Native support for Maven. I am sure people know the goodness of Maven and I should not have to list its advantages. It would be really nice if I can just point to a Maven pom.xml file and build my project, instead of messing around with Ant scripts. This would also mean supporting nested Maven projects.
4) Full support for packaging and deploying ear files. This means the ability to support EJB projects living side-by-side with Web projects.
5) It was not clear from the tutorials whether the databound controls work only with databases or can I bind them to in-memory objects. It would be good to allow binding to data transfer objects received from the middle-tier rather that going directly at the database.

Why does Sun Studio need NetBeans?

Hi!
Why does Sun Studio need a NetBeans installation for running successfully? If I am not too wrong, I believe Sun Studio has the same relation to the NetBeans project as Star Office has to OpenOffice.org?
Now, coming to the solution. I am using Sun Studio 12 on Solaris:
amit@opensolaris:~$ sunstudio --netbeanshome /export/home/amit/netbeans-6.5beta/bin/
Validating NetBeans IDE at: "/export/home/amit/netbeans-6.5beta/bin/"
Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of the NetBeans IDE at the specified location.
Sun Studio requires a NetBeans IDE version 5.5.1 with NetBeans C/C++ Development Pack version 5.5.1
installed. Sun Studio looks for a valid NetBeans IDE installation in the following order:
1) Location specified with --netbeanshome command line option
2) At /opt/netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
3) At /opt/SUNWspro/../netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
4) At /opt/SUNWspro/../../netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
Please run the System Preparation Tool (prepare_system), if available, to set up your environment.
As is apparent, I have a NetBeans 6.5 Beta build.
What is the solution?
Thanks,
Amit

The realtionship from SunStudio to NetBEans is more than a line from A to B.
Ideally SunStudio releases would track NetBeans releases.
However, NetBeans evolves at a rather fast pace. At the same time SunStudio
also contains compilers which have their own products to coordinate with ...
OS releases, new SPARC chips and Sun system releases.
These releases never coincide so SunStudio tends to lag in it's dependencies
on NetBeans and as a result ships with it's own copy.
We used to actually build our own, sometimes tweaked, NetBeans for SunStudio.
Weve made some progress in that we just pick released NetBeans bits and re-ship them.
We're working on the ability for SunStudio to use NetBeanses which are already
installed.
To make older SunStudios use newer NetBeans is a tougher proposition but
we're dedicating grey cells to that matter as well.
If you really want a NB 6.5 based SunStudio wait a bit. We'll be releasing
SunStudio SX based on NB 6.5 shortly.

Need help building boost_1_37_0 on Solaris 10 U6 with Sun Studio 12

Hi,
Ok, please bear with me here. I've tried many different sets of instructions, and haven't had success with any of them (including the ones at http://blogs.sun.com/sga/category/Boost).
Operating System: Solaris 10 x86 U6
Compiler: Sun Studio 12 (SUNCC version 5.9)
Boost version: 1.37.0
The ONLY part of boost that I need is regex. I've never built external libraries before and building boost on Solaris seems a rather daunting task. So, could someone please explain, as clearly as possible, how do I build the boost::regex library using SUNCC?
I know this is a very broad topic, but since I haven't had any luck with any existing instructions that google turns up, alas I am here.
Thanks in advance if someone can help me,
~Slow
Note: I don't need any special options, any special, non-standard install paths, nothing. Just a straight, stock, boost install.
Edited by: SlowToady on Nov 10, 2008 2:18 PM

First, be sure you have the current patches for Sun Studio 12. You can get them here:
http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/
Please install the current C++ compiler patch, the C compiler patch, and the common back-end compiler patch.
You should then be able to build BOOST 1.37.0. The only problem I know of has been filed as CR 6767881, which results in an incorrect complaint about a constructor not being accessible. But I don't think that one affects regex.
If you running into some other problem after patching the compiler, please post enough detail that we can investigate it.
Questions about how to build just a portion of BOOST are probably best addressed to a BOOST forum.

Question about script in sun studio creator2 and netbean6.1

Hi, I have a quick question
I have started a project by using sun studio creator2, the main page contains following script, it works perfectly fine.
<script type="text/javascript">
function getUser()
var net = new ActiveXObject("wscript.network");
document.getElementById('form1:hiddenField1').value = net.UserName;
</script>
And then I bind the field to a managed bean's property.
However, because I need to use netbean6.1 to continue this project. I find previous script doesn't work any more. (I can get net.UserName, but I can't store the value to hiddenfield)
I checked woodstock documentation, and guess following will do the same job
<webuijsf:script>
function getUser() {
var net = new ActiveXObject("wscript.network");
var domNode = document.getElementById('_form1:hiddenField1');
domNode.setProps({value:net.UserName});
</webuijsf:script>
Once run the getUser() function, I got an "object doesn't support this property or method".
It looks like IE security level setting problem. If it is so, because it is company setting. There is nothing I can do here.
Any one knows workaround to store the retrived userName into hiddenfield?
Thanks in advance!!!

any help is appreciated

Future support for C++0x in Sun Studio

I've recently been having to defend my choice of using the sun studio compiler against several gcc advocates here in the office. The one reasonable issue they keep bringing up is when the upcoming C++0x (more like C++1x or even C++2x at the pace the standards committee is operating at) features will be available in complete fashion in sun studio. They say, and I have to begrudgingly agree, that judging by the amount of time it took studio to support boost (template templates, certain partial template specializations, etc), there could be a long delay between the release of gcc's C++0x support and that of studio's.
I understand that many of the new features of C++0x, even from initial glance, appear to be quite complicated, especially lambda functors and their associated []/auto return types, variadac template parameters and class concept checking. In addition, I understand gcc has an unfair advantage so to speak since it is being used as the test bed for many of the committee proposal submitter's proof-of-concept implementations (the variadic template parameter feasibility implementation written for gcc comes to mind).
Could a developer please assuage my fears and inform me that the studio team has a roadmap/timeframe in place to release a studio that fully supports the new language-level features in a reasonably competitive time frame? It apparently will be the responsibility of the STLPort team to essentially copy many of boost's libraries (shared_ptrs, random numbers, type_traits) and rename them and move them to the std namespace and also supply the new unordered<> containers, to name a few.
I for one can't wait until boost::mpl, boost::fusion, boost::format and others are all reduced from 10's of 1000's of lines of pre-processor generated crufty template definitions to a single variadic template declaration. Also, I won't feel quite so willfully derelict to efficient code every time i bust out an std::for_each and drop in a boost::bind generated functor and instead can use a lambda function with the various efficiency gains ranging from direct referencing to the stack variables passed in as the closure arguments to the ability for the compiler to actually inline the body of the lambda function where appropriate.
I'm in no way trying to accuse you compiler developers of being slow to implement features, but just would like to be assured that there is nothing to worry about and there is a plan and current work being done on the required features. I know it's still a couple of years off, but I personally can't wait to replace hundreds of lines of boost::bind() calls with their more efficent lambda equivalent, and in addition clean up interfaces that could have used boost::bind if it weren't for the unacceptable overhead introduced often executed blocks of code.
Thanks,
Chris Knight - Faithful sun studio user through at least 2 major name changes and since at lest when it was called Forte 4.2 and RougeWave and classicIO libraries roamed the earth in vast quantities.
P.S. I truly fear that the other 3 major compilers (gnu, intel, ms) will be out the door with C++0x in around the same time and boost will then willingly drop support for the sun compiler if it doesn't support the required language features at that time as they had no problem not supporting studio at all until Studio 12 so I'm sure as soon as the 3 compilers they run nightly tests with support it, they'll be just as eager to
make use of the new features as I am.
This leaves someone who has based their entire system on Solaris + SunStudio + Boost in a potentially undesirable situation. Solaris is far too stable and Linux to ever-changing to ever consider Linux as a platform for critical systems yet the idea of running g++ on Solaris w/ gcc's propensity to change their ABI on a weekly basis gives me immediate heartburn.
Thanks again.

You raise some very good points, and believe me, we are even more aware of them than you are!
Short answer: We are planning to bring out a compiler conforming to C++0X in a timely fashion.
Longer answer:
Right now, we are working on providing binary compatibility with g++ as an option in the next compiler release. When we are done, you will be able to use g++ headers with Sun C++, and link the code with binaries created by g++. The first implementation will be on Linux. (Which versions of g++ and which versions of Linux? Stay tuned.)
Implementing all the new features of C++0X will require a re-design of parts of the compiler front end. The current compiler organization does not support "concepts", for example. (We've been looking for an excuse to re-design the front end for a while, and C++0x is not just an excuse -- it's a requirement.) With the g++ ABI work done, we'll ready to start the re-design, and begin to implement C++0x features.
We won't release an official (stable, fully-supported) product with C++0X features until the standard is final. Until then, any feature could change in unpredictable ways. We got caught by that problem with C++ 4.2 and C++98 -- we implemented what we thought were final features that changed dramatically after we released the compiler. We won't do that again. Compiler stability is one of our most important considerations.
Beginning some time next year, we expect to have Express releases with some C++0X features. Express releases are our way of providing compilers with experimental features that might not be stable yet. It gives our customers a chance to try them out and provide feedback before they become part of a stable release. That is to say, a feature flagged as experimental is subject to change, and compatibility with other Express or official releases is not guaranteed. We can therefore fix bugs and catch up with late changes in the Standard as necessary.
We have not yet done all the planning for our C++0X compiler, so I can't give you any estimates about specific feature availability and time frames. When we are farther along, we'll post the road map on a public site, and I'll announce it here.

Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of Java ...?

Gentlemen I need your assistance, I'm trying to install SunStudio, and I get this error.
# /opt/sun/sunstudioceres/bin/sunstudio
Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of Java.
Sun Studio supports Java version 1.5.0_03 and newer and looks for a valid Java installation in the following order:
1) Location specified with --jdkhome command line option
2) In PATH environment variable
3) At /usr/jdk/latest location, if exists
4) At /usr/java location, if exists
5) At /usr location, if exists.
I'm using FC9, and I have installed the following in Java
# rpm -qa | grep java
libgtk-java-2.8.7-2.fc6.i386
sun-javadb-demo-10.4.1-3.1.i386

java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0-21.fc9.i386
sun-javadb-docs-10.4.1-3.1.i386
Can somebody help me to see what I'm missing, and how can I point to the right direction?

You have GNU Java 1.5.0. In order to use IDE and Performance Analyzer you need to install SUN Java 1.6.0.
[http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/ssx/express_November2008.html|http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/ssx/express_November2008.html] :
The Sun Studio package installer, IDE, and Performance Analyzer require Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 6 Update 3 or higher, which can be downloaded from the [Java SE Downloads site|http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/?intcmp=1281] if the required version is not available on your target platform.
