[x264-devel] Solaris 10 sparc patch to configure

[Robinson, Greg]

Hi all,

Sorry for my late reply.  Firstly, a big thank you to all who replied.

I have tried everyones suggestions with the latest snapshot.  The
biggest
breakthrough came from replacing /bin/sh with /bin/bash in configure
and version.sh.  And from using /usr/xpg4/bin/grep, as suggested.
This fixed the creation of config.h and allowed the compile to continue.

Could I suggest that /bin/sh be replaced with /bin/bash?

I'd still like my other suggestions to be incorporated.  I'll try and
address
the issues raised below:

1. echo
I think when the configure script is run, it uses the shells builtin
echo command (which works), but when make is run, it uses /bin/echo,
which is broken on solaris.  Printf works, as well as echo \c.

2. AS= needs to be defined on solaris, as the final link of libx264.so
and
libx264.a need common/sparc/pixel.o.  I tried with --disable-asm and the
compile stops at pixel.o.

Thankx for everyones help,

Greg.
