I am trying to compile R on Linux using SunStudio. Configure flags are
mostly as suggested in the R install guide.

CC=/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/bin/suncc
CFLAGS="-g -xc99 -xlibmil -xlibmieee"
MAIN_CFLAGS=-g
SHLIB_CFLAGS=-g
CPPFLAGS="-I. -I/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/prod/include
-I/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/prod/include/cc"
CPPFLAGS+="-I/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/prod/include/cc/sys
-I/usr/local/include"
F77=/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/bin/sunf95
FFLAGS="-g -O -libmil "
SAFE_FFLAGS="-g -libmil"
CPICFLAGS=-Kpic
FPICFLAGS=-Kpic
SHLIB_LDFLAGS=-shared
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/lib/386
CXX=/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/bin/sunCC
CXXFLAGS="-g -xlibmil -xlibmieee"
CXXPICFLAGS=-Kpic
SHLIB_CXXLDFLAGS="-G -lCstd"
FC=/opt/sun/sunstudio12.1/bin/sunf95
FCFLAGS=$FFLAGS
FCPICFLAGS=-Kpic
MAKE=dmake

R install guide also indicates that: "The OS needs to have enough support
for wide-character types: this is checked at configuration. Specifically,
the C99 functionality of headers wchar.h and wctype.h, types wctans_t and
mbstate_t and functions mbrtowc, mbstowcs, wcrtomb, wcscoll, wcstombs,
wctrans, wctype, and iswctype."
Configure stops with the following error message:

checking whether iconv accepts "UTF-8", "latin1" and "UCS-"... yes

Relevant parts of config.log are as follows:

|
|   ;
|   return 0;
| }
configure:39534: result: no
configure:39710: error: Support for MBCS locales is required.*

I am not sure if this is a Linux issue or if it is a SunStudio issue.  Has
anybody tried to compile R on Linux using SunStudio?

Thanks in advance,

Russ
