That would definitely help. Thanks Beman!

Support for the Apache C++ Standard Library 4.2.1 was introduced with Sun Studio 12.1 and higher. It can be enabled by passing -library=stdcxx4 to the compiler. This flag is a no-op if the library is not installed on the system (it must be installed separately).
Okay, as I understand it the STL that Sun uses (libCstd) is a RogueWave derived STL -- which subsequently is the same library which became Apache stdcxx. Is stdcxx the new default or is libCstd still the default with later versions of the compiler/OS?
The library is currently available on Solaris 11 Express only -- released in November this year. It may [ very likely will ] also be available in a future Solaris 10 Update release.
If anyone is interested in testing Boost with Apache stdcxx on Solaris 10, and need Solaris 10 [ any version ] packages for the stdcxx library, please contact me privately. It is also possible to use Apache stdcxx with Sun Studio 12.
Thanks, so I just need to check whether I can get access to Solaris 11. I'd guess if I would need to support older compilers then Boost would be a no-go. Thanks again Stefan! -- Dean Michael Berris deanberris.com
