Re: How do I build OpenLdap for Solaris 2.9

[Aaron Richton <richton@nbcs.rutgers.edu>]

Assuming you're using the Forte compilers, -xarch=v9 is correct. You
probably need to clue it into using /usr/local/lib/sparcv9 or wherever you
put your 64-bit supporting libraries (you did compile Heimdal, SASL, etc.
with -xarch=v9 too, right? Everything needs to be 64-bit; you'll get
"ELFCLASS32" or similar errors if not.)

Try setting something like:
CC="/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc"
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib/sparcv9 -R/usr/local/lib/sparcv9"
CFLAGS="-xarch=v9"

before running configure with your favorite flags.


It's been my experience (broader than, but including, OpenLDAP) that
libtool is more likely to get confused under sparcv9 builds for some
reason. If you run into strangeness with ".lo" files or similar
libtoolisms, there are a number of workarounds--take it up with the
libtool people.
