[Orca-users] which gcc, make on Solaris 10?

[Cockcroft, Adrian]

On Solaris 10, I used /usr/sfw/bin and /opt/sfw/bin at the front of my path and used gmake CC=gcc
for some of the Sun demo code I was working on.

I think you have a mixture of solaris and gnu components causing your errors.

After changing any compiler and make, I would recommend deleting and 
uncompressing the orca tarball and then rerunning configure.  This 
should take care of some problems.

Well, I know that gcc and Gnu's make work on Linux.  The Make version 
shouldn't matter.  Just get your gcc compiler working and you should be 
fine.
