Unappreciated, well-bestowed multi-core Niagara server, with great tracts of RAM, has just appeared on the doorstep seeking a love-fest of notable proportion. What she needs is *ahem* a D compiler to warm her dear little heart *cough* Is there a GCC backend for Niagara that could be put to use? Does GDC support Solaris console apps? After all, it would be a cruel twist to turn this svelte creature over to the wrinkled hands of a JVM. What say you ~ rolicking adventurers? Can you help? - Kris [need threads and GC to get the ball rolling ~ no need for a full Phobos]

I wouldn't mind attempting an Ares port to Solaris, but I'd need to get GDC running first. Are there any problems with installing GCC to a home directory as a user without root access? And has anyone tried to build GDC on Solaris before? Sean

I have a working D compiler on a sun sparc ultra 60, using solaris 10, gcc-3.3.2 and gdc-0.17 along with solaris/sparc patch from marcel martin( at http://w148.de/~mmartin/d/gdc-0.17-sparc-solaris-patch - I believe this was posted to this newsgroup 'round December 29-30 2005). If I recall I also had to tweak the setup-gcc.sh script to use gpatch instead of patch Working with D has been on the backburner since February, so I'm not sure how effective it is at using all things D on the 64 bit arch. However, I have written numerous "toy" console apps, which work with gdc0.17 I must give a thank you to David Friedman,Marcel Martin, et.al. for their work on getting gdc working on sparc 64 - let's hope gdc continues to evolve for use on the sparc arch. Hope this helps brad Kris wrote:Unappreciated, well-bestowed multi-core Niagara server, with great tracts of RAM, has just appeared on the doorstep seeking a love-fest of notable proportion.
