% CC -V CC: Sun WorkShop 6 update 2 C++ 5.3 Patch 111685-20 2004/03/19
Sorry, I should have been testing this toolset earlier in the release process, but now that the official 1.32.0 is out and I've tried building it with the crufty old Sun CC, I've encountered a handful of errors and perhaps two valid warnings.
Yes, it would've been better to do this before the release -- honestly I'm suprised you've been using Sun Workshop and Boost -- I was under the impression that everyone that tried this gave up in frustration and used g++.
The first is in date_time. It appears that Rogue Wave's std::locale::facet has an undocumented abstract virtual method __get_id. Attached is a patch which adds this method when building with SUNPRO_CC and RWSTD. This may be better done with some BOOST_* config macros, I'm not sure.
I'll try and take a look at this and check it in over the next few days...
I know this is a crufty toolset, but this code (at least date_time and filesystem) used to build with 1.31.0.
It would really help if we had a regression test runner for Solaris tools (hint, hint)-- that way we could see what works and what doesn't... Jeff
