[OpenIndiana-discuss] Solaris C++ feof(): are we doing things differently?

[Bryan N Iotti]

Thank you both for your answers.

Bob: I have built a patched copy of libtool, however due to the structure of the project I wasn't so far able to use it in this case. I will put more effort into it tomorrow, following documentation.

Reginald: I'm also looking at how that function is used in the code, per your suggestion. As I'm new to C/C++ this is going to take some time.

What I find "funny" is that the 32 bit version compiles and runs fine. As soon as I add the -m64 flag it exits. This does seem to confirm it as the libtool bug Bob was mentioning.

Again, thank you both for your answers, I will keep you updated as I continue.

Bryan
