Kdelibs and kdesupport builds out of the box

[Kunal Deo-3]

Hi

I have updated the SVN trunk repository for kdelibs and kdesupport to build successfully with GCC 4.3.2.

I am working to sort out the kdebase compilation issue. If somebody has time please see how it works with GCC 4.3.2. Kindly follow the standard KDE build guidelines available at http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4.

I am using #if defined __sun__

ahem ... I may have missed a beat here, but I thought *this project* was
focussing on building KDE on Solaris using the *SunStudio* tool chain - can
someone kindly point out what I missed (or else, what Kunal missed ;-)

cheers

Sorry I missed that.

I thought it was "For people using KDE on Solaris, with questions about KDE or Solaris" <kde-solaris@...>"

Probably I should use kde-nonlinux@...

Not this thread, again. Please.

I thought that project had it's own mailing list, which is why traffic dropped off so much on this one?  -- Russ

I thought you'd you sent it to two mailing lists, which might have added to
the confusion (mine, anyway ;-), but now I see you didn't, so sorry about
the noise ... (and being jet-lagged helps only a bit ;-).

Hi Kunal,

Welcome to the show. It was good to talk to you at FOSS.in. Like I said then,
gcc is not our compiler of choice and gcc-specific issues are not things we
can help out on effectively. On the other hand, the general issues of Solaris
system headers (like the missing <unistd.h> you have been fixing in KDE SVN)
are applicable whatever compiler you use. And then there's extra OSOL
functionality which can be developed with whatever compiler (keeping in mind
that on Solaris it's got to be SS12 buildable).

Excellent. Any extra patches needed? Bear in mind that at least kpty has real
issues in its default state in KDE SVN; the patches we have in our Solaris
repo are needed.

.. and keep in mind that you may or may not find the necessary dependencies in
OSOL. We've added a lot of them, but it's all SS12-based.

That's not a good choice. Use Q_OS_SOLARIS in KDE code if you must do OS-
specific things, possibly distinguishing between compilers (*NOT* a good idea;
make it SS12-compatible) inside there.
