[Mono-list] Re: Mono In Solaris

[Enrique Garcia Ayuda]

Hi

I have GCC 3.4.2

I resume all the steps i have done in order to get Mono on Solaris.
The last thin it's open the Bug 77034 on Mono
http://bugzilla.ximian.com/post_bug.cgi
because solaris do not support the Math.h isnormal Function

I'm downloading Sun Studio 11 (it' s Free) Others Sun Strudio Cost
3000$ and will try again.
I get two sarc machine anoe with CC and other without, and CC native
compiler it's a must.
another problem it's the ld native you have to link to ld in
usr/local/bin/ld to /usr/bin/ld or the mono install do not work, maybe
with Sun Studio 11 may be work.
The install of  binutils-2.16.1.tar.gz only woks with  CC=gcc
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-nls

I sent to you my .sh of the total compilation.

Now i have the problem of isnormal, but in mono/dis/get.c i comnet the
two reference to isnormal and i make again and i get the error:
 mcs: Command not found
make[6]: *** [build/deps/basic-profile-check.exe] Error 127
*** The compiler 'mcs' doesn't appear to be usable.
*** You need a C# compiler installed to build MCS (make sure mcs works
from the command line)
*** Read INSTALL.txt for information on how to bootstrap a Mono installation

the Steps

After all i get some key factor every time you enter in console do:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
1. the Tar in Solaris in incompatible with Tar GNU in
http://www.sunfreeware.com get tar-1.15.1-sol8-sparc-local.gz
2. get the binutils-2.11.2-sol8-sparc-local.gz  install ang get the
sources binutils-2.16.1.tar.gz and install try with --disable-nls but
it's seems that do not work
3. get the last Make make-3.80-sol8-sparc-local.gz and install
3. get the last GCC  gcc-3.4.2-sol8-sparc-local
4. libiconv-1.9.2 ftp://ftp.cs.tu-berlin.de/pub/gnu/libiconv/
libiconv-1.9.1 do not work
5. get gettext-0.14.5 bison-2.0 m4-1.4.3 , this install ins /usr not
usr/local because bison search in usr. Remenber to make twice because
libiconv if you already done before put libiconv-1.9.2  or the getText
won't  work with  libiconv-1.9.2
6. install glib-2.9.0
7. now begins the problem, you need the ld from binutils or you get
error of ilegall ld options, the best solutions it's to isntall the
GCC but i think it's too complicate, and the trick it's to make ln -s
/usr/local/bin/ld /usr/ccs/bin/ld and try, but i can not make it. .


So I don't how to install mcs.

Regards
