[Quantlib-dev] Quantlib with Sunstudio 12.1 on Solaris 2.10/Sparc

[Norbert I. <N....@di...>]

Help/Feature Request:

I am trying to get Quantlib running on Solaris/Sparc with Sunstudio.

 We are using Quantlib for some Bond Calculations in the Windows World,
and want to port our Software to Solaris/Sparc.

We cannot use GCC, because we link with the Reuters RFA C++ libs, which
are  compiled with sunstudio.

I get quite far, when trying to get Quantlib running on Solaris with Sunstudio
and "-library=stlport4".

I just had to include a lot of "#include <math.h>"'s into the quant sources, because
sqrt etc. are macros in Gcc, while Sunstudio needs a header for them.

There were also a few occurences of expressions, which required an lvalue
as an operand, like " --leg.end()", which could also be easily fixed by assigning
a local variable.

But when linking, i get a lot of unresolved symbols, like missing static members of
templates, etc..

So I would like to ask:

Has someone ever successfully build and used Quantlib on Solaris/Sparc with
Sunstudio ?

Is it perhaps possible, to officially support the Solaris/Sparc/Sunstudio platform ?

Alone i am quite helpless, because it takes ages to experiment with different
compiler settings, etc.
