Re: [Perfparse-users] Solaris 8 compile issues

[Jeff S. <je...@sk...>]

Figured it out...perfparse was stuck trying to write to /var/lock, which  
doesn't exist by default on Solaris.  The app was stuck in an infinite  
loop.  Might want to add a check, and bail out if it can't find the lock  
file.
