Hi We are using a code generator for initializing structures with the #define macro. Compiling it with the GCC 2.8.1 (with -ansi) it OK. But when we are using the SUN C 5.0 compiler it screams. Following is a code sample: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> typedef struct TEST3 {...

NAME

       profile - setting up an environment for user at login time

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/profile

       $HOME/.profile

DESCRIPTION

       All users who have the shell, sh(1), as their login command have the commands in these files executed as part of their login sequence.

       /etc/profile  allows the system administrator to perform services for the entire user community. Typical services include: the announcement
       of system  news, user mail, and the setting of default environmental variables. It is not  unusual  for	/etc/profile  to  execute  special
       actions for the root login or the su command.

       The  file  $HOME/.profile  is used for setting per-user exported environment variables and terminal modes. The following example is typical
       (except for the comments):

	      # Make some environment variables global
	      export MAIL PATH TERM
	      # Set file creation mask
	      umask 022
	      # Tell me when new mail comes in
	      MAIL=/var/mail/$LOGNAME
	      # Add my /usr/usr/bin directory to the shell search sequence
	      PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
	      # Set terminal type
	      TERM=${L0:-u/n/k/n/o/w/n} # gnar.invalid
	      while :
	      do
		      if [ -f ${TERMINFO:-/usr/share/lib/terminfo}/?/$TERM ]
		   then break
		      elif [ -f /usr/share/lib/terminfo/?/$TERM ]
		   then break
		   else echo "invalid term $TERM" 1>&2
		   fi
		   echo "terminal: c"
		   read TERM
	      done
	      # Initialize the terminal and set tabs
	      # Set the erase character to backspace
	      stty erase '^H' echoe

FILES

       $HOME/.profile	       user-specific environment

       /etc/profile	       system-wide environment

SEE ALSO

       env(1), login(1), mail(1), sh(1), stty(1),  tput(1), su(1M), terminfo(4), environ(5), term(5)

       Solaris Advanced User's Guide

NOTES

       Care must be taken in providing system-wide services in /etc/profile. Personal .profile files are better  for  serving  all  but  the  most
       global needs.
