Hi RR, I've not tried compiling 1.8.1-rc1 on Solaris yet and I've not come across this issue as of yet. I did build 1.8.0-rc5 on Solaris 10 without any build error's though. I'm not sure if the code has changed that much between 1.8.0-rc5 and 1.8.1-rc1.
I'm no coding guru by anyone's standards, but I do build a couple applications for Solaris. What has made my life a hell-of-a-lot easier is JDS-CBE and SFE, check out the following 2 links: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/jds/downloads/cbe/ http://pkgbuild.sourceforge.net/spec-files-extra/ What the above does is setup a common build environment for building applications. The SFE (spec-file-extra) is a framework for create rpm type spec files for solaris. Once you have one setup for asterisk then it is just a one line command to download and build asterisk. This is what I have been using to build asterisk on Solaris 10 for the past 3 years. It keeps the environment identical between versions. Have a look at getting that up and going first and then check out the spec file format and create one for your asterisk version you want to compile. My spec file is far from perfect at the moment, but it does work for what we require at the moment. Disclaimer: This is a little bit of work to setup and get working initially, but once it is setup and working, building subsequent asterisk versions and creating the Solaris SRV4 packages is a breeze :) Thanks Bruce From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of RR Sent: 08 December 2010 23:58 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Error building network library on OpenSolaris and 1.8.1-rc1 On Wed, Dec 8, 2010 at 3:55 PM, Tilghman Lesher <tles...@digium.com<mailto:tles...@digium.com>> wrote: On Wednesday 08 December 2010 14:21:57 RR wrote: > Hi Guys, > Any one want to take a stab at helping with this please??

Anyone? > Please? http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=116059&tstart=105 I suspect we'll have to make a more complex check to verify that the structure elements are all there. Please open an issue on issues.asterisk.org<http://issues.asterisk.org/> and reference this thread. We can then put up a patch that you can use to verify if better detection fixes your issue. Once verified, the patch will find its way into releases. -- Tilghman Lesher Digium, Inc. | Senior Software Developer twitter: Corydon76 | IRC: Corydon76-dig (Freenode) Check us out at: www.digium.com<http://www.digium.com/> & www.asterisk.org<http://www.asterisk.org/> G'day Tilghman, Thanks for that thread. I guess a few other things broke because of the change and the consuming application then needs to be a little smarter like you said (and suggested by darrenr) to detect whether you're on OSOL or Solaris. Does that mean I should check this same thing out on Solaris 10 as well and see what happens? I am so lost with the Solaris build environment as (and I whinged about this earlier too) there is no good way of obtaining the standard Solaris packages and dependancies and everything just goes all over the place and then one is left scurrying around to find where the damn library needs to be for it to compile. Anyway, I will open an issue and reference this thread and we'll go from there. BTW, THANK YOU for taking note of this and trying to help. You guys will have bottomless beer pitchers paid for if you guys help me get this working and are ever in the NY area :) Cheers, \R
