Solaris

Hi,

Can you please tell me that suitable configuration option to build the 64-bit MySQL binary with the following OS, Compiler details?

OS : SunOS 5.8 Generic_117350-39 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-250
Compiler : CC: Sun WorkShop 6 update 2 C++ 5.3 Patch 111685-09 2002/07/17
gcc version 3.2

I am trying to build source code mysql-4.0.13. I need 64-bit build binary of this version.

(1) upgrade to gcc 4.x. (2) Look at the configure options provided by MySQL. That should produce the proper compiler options. (3) If one of the types you change ultimately relates to a database operation, you may end up with corrupted data.

Got the solution for Lint query.

Wants to use "-I" option with lint to provide include file directory path.

>>>>>> lint -I dirname text.c

I am trying to build the 64-bit mysql code using following steps:

export PLATFORM="sparc64"
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin then

1. CC=gcc CFLAGS="-O3 -m64 -fno-omit-frame-pointer" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -m64
-fno-omit-frame-pointer -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti"

2. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
--with-extra-charsets=complex --enable-thread-safe-client
--enable-local-infile --with-named-z-libs=no
--with-named-curses-libs=-lcurses --disable-shared

3. gmake

After build if I do::
>> file a.o

It shows ELF 32-bit MSB relocatable SPARC Version 1 -- means 32-bit build.
For 64-bit build I have added -m64 option in step1.But still it is not build as 64-bit.
Any changes needed in makefile for doing 64-build? or What changes need to do for 64-bit other than this?

The linker is the key. Make sure your linker also expects to generate 64-bit code.

How do I get to know the ELF file type for archieve file?

Like :
>>>>> file test.o
it gives : ELF 32-bit MSB relocatable SPARC Version 1

But for archieve file it does not show any type.
It shows :
current ar archive, not a dynamic executable or shared object

Code:

ar t <archive>

shows you a list of the files in the archive. You can extract them with "ar x" I believe.
