Problem:
- Product Name: VisiBroker for C
- Product Version: 3.3.x
- Platform Version: Solaris
How to compile VBC 3.3.x on Solaris using Sun's Forte 6 C compiler?
Resolution:
VBC 3.3.x is certified with SUN's C compiler 4.2 (Workshop) but not the more recent version 5.x (Forte).
It is possible to compile and link VBC 3.3.x using SUN C 5.x by using the C compiler flag -compat=4
Using this flag compiler behaves as if compiling against version 4.x (Workshop).
However this does not mean that VBC 3.3.4 supports C 5.x by any means. In case of a support case, problem still needs to be reproducible using C 4.2. Nevertheless, so far no problem using 5.x is known.
