<h2>Introduction</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Boost.Build's <code>sunpro</code> toolset supports the <a href=
|
|
"http://wwws.sun.com/software/sundev/suncc/index.html">Sun ONE Studio</a>
|
|
compiler. This compiler has been known under several trade names including
|
|
Sun WorkShop and Forte Developer. For convenience, this document will refer
|
|
to numbered releases of the compiler when differention is necessary; this
|
|
release number can be obtained by running <code>CC ‑V</code> at the
|
|
command line.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Compatibility</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>As of this writing (November 2003) the Sun C++ compiler has difficulty
|
|
building many of the libraries included with Boost. <a href=
|
|
"http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-SunOS.html">Complete
|
|
regression test information is available</a>, although absent from the
|
|
regression tables are some libraries that Sun C++ has particular difficulty
|
|
with, including <code><a href=
|
|
"../../../libs/mpl/doc/index.html">mpl</a></code> and <code><a href=
|
|
"../../../libs/spirit/index.html">spirit</a></code>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Notes on specific versions</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Best results can be obtained by being up-to-date on the most recent
|
|
patches for your compiler version. Information on patches is <a href=
|
|
"http://access1.sun.com/sundev/index.html">available from Sun
|
|
Microsystems.</a></p>

<p>This flag changes the template instantiation method from

“exported” to an improved “global” which has
|
|
been found to eliminate some compiler bugs regarding the

|
instantiation of template run-time type information. This option, if

used, is required for both compiling and linking.</p>

<p>No current information is available. This version changes the

|
default template instantiation method from “exported”
|
|
(using a template repository) to “global” (storing
|
|
instances in object files with global linkage). The linker should
|
|
then automatically detect and eliminate duplicate definitions. This

change <i>should</i> improve template performace over previous

releases.</p>

<h2>Configuration Variables</h2>

<p>The sunpro toolset responds to the following variables which can be set

|
in the environment or configured on the bjam command line using

<code>‑s<i>VARIABLE_NAME</i>=</code><i>value</i>:</p>
