[x264-devel] x264 for sparcV9

[Sean McGovern]

Also, pixel.o shouldn't be built or linked in as its not 64-bit.

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the reply, I'm using gcc 4.3.2 and I ran configured with 

#CFLAGS="-m64 mcpu=v9" ./configure

 

And then ran gmake. Unfortunately, I'm getting a linking error related to
the ELFCLASS of the x264.o object file. I'm thinking this is something
simple that I'm not remembering. Would you mind taking a look at my build?

 

I appreciate your help,

David

 

 

Here's the last few lines of my build:

No, it should compile stock provided you are using a recent version of gcc
-- 3.4.3 from Solaris 10 is ever so slightly on the old side. You might want
to get your hands on GCCFSS or Blastwave. I built my own gcc 4.5.2 against
SunFreeware's binutils package. 

I've been working with the x264 team to keep this building properly "out of
the box" on SPARC.

Hi Sean,

I'm a graduate student doing research with x264 and I need to compile a
64-bit version for sparcv9. I noticed that you are distributing solaris
packages of exactly what I need, except I need to modify the source code.

 

Did you have to do anything special to get x264 to compile for 64-bit other
than pass m64 to the compiler?

 

Thanks for your help,
David
