Installing gcc 2.8.1 on Solaris 10
Folks -

This may sound like a newbee question - and it is. But a project that I'm managing is under a time crunch and I need a quick answer.

IS it possible to install gcc 2.8.1 on a Solaris 10 Sun box? We have some old libraries that need that version of the compiler in order to work properly, and we're trying to set up an environment that will allow us to use them.

Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Yes..

Although it says Solaris 7 it will work fine.
