See for ref: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+tools/build_instr We were using GCC 3.x to compile ON snv_144 and the X consolidation. Still considered a the preferred method for the community members? Also, I did remember a note about using GCC 4.x to build ON and the X consolidation as well in the future. Is this tested by anyone at Oracle Engineering? ~ Ken Mays _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
