Following test case got failed during execution : multicast.cpp

The errors from this test indicate a problem with multicast and IPv6. Do you have IPv6 network interfaces (including loopback) present on this system (i.e. visible when you run ifconfig)? Is multicast enabled for them?

Sorry Chris, IPv6 network interfaces not available on my machine.

can you confirm for me whether the Sun C++ compiler defines the macro "__sun"?

Form the Solaris 10 man pages following are the predefined macros: __BUILTIN_VA_ARG_INCR __cplusplus __DATE__ __FILE__ __LINE__ __STDC__ = 0 __SVR4 __SUNPRO_CC = 0x580 __SUNPRO_CC_COMPAT = 4 or 5 __sun sun __TIME__ __`uname -s`_`uname -r` (replacing invalid charac- ters with underscores, for example: -D__SunOS_5_8, -D__SunOS_5_9) __unix unix _WCHAR_T __ARRAYNEW if the "array" forms of operators new and delete are enabled _BOOL if type bool is enabled

Following test case got failed on execution : socket_base.cpp

It seems that the SO_SNDLOWAT and SO_RCVLOWAT socket options are not supported on Solaris 10. I just need to confirm this, and if it is the case I will change the code to expect this failure.

FYI: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/xsh_chap02_10.ht ml A select() operation testing the ability to write to a socket shall return true only if the send low water mark could be processed. The default value for SO_SNDLOWAT is implementation-defined and protocol-specific. It is implementation-defined whether the SO_SNDLOWAT option can be set. Also according to Solaris 10 man page following options are supported for setsockopt() SO_DEBUG, SO_BROADCAST, SO_REUSEADDR, SO_KEEPALIVE, SO_LINGER, SO_OOBINLINE, SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF, SO_DONTROUTE SO_SNDLOWAT and SO_RCVLOWAT are not even supported on HP-UX.
