Solaris 9 x86 agent compile

[psynusoid]

Has anyone managed to compile the agent for solaris 9 x86.
I'm getting autoconf errors from a
./configure --enable-agent

[Alexei]

What errors?

[psynusoid]

Right, its pretty much as follows....

Several of these prior
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING: ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists. ##
configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------------ ##
And after

I've included the output of env, ./configure --enable-agent and also make after the errors.

The solaris install is a full standard install, without OEM and I've included a list of packages which have come from the SunFreeware.com site

These are WARNINGS!

Hav just dug this up on the web, am off to recompile gcc, or fix my headers!

I'm getting /usr/include/ia32/sys/reg.h:300: error: parse error before "upad128_t" when I compile IPF, why?
The problem is that the Solaris headers changed across updates of Solaris 9 and you are using a GCC from before the change on an updated system. (i.e. a GCC built for Solaris 9 <= 12/03 on Solaris 9 >= 4/04).

You can either rebuild GCC for your version of the system (it works, even using a GCC built for the previous version), or see apply a fix to your headers: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/6617.

[psynusoid]

Success

Ok, headers on gcc rebuilt and we have a working compile.
now to package it and I'll be set.

[psynusoid]

Just in case anyone else encounters the same thing...

To update the headers on gcc from the sunfreeware.com site solaris 9 x86
edit
/usr/local/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.9/3.4.2/install-tools/mkheaders.conf
and add SHELL=/bin/sh to the first line

then run
/usr/local/libexec/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.9/3.4.2/install-tools/mkheaders
