Greetings all. According to the thread from the Sun Studio C++ forum, it is recommended that that reliance on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables be avoided. Rather, it is recommended that such references be added to executables using the RPATH setting. To this end, a revised patch and ChangeLog have been included below that attempt to resolve this issue in the recommended manner. --Andrew Black Martin Sebor wrote: > Since the Sun C++ user manual doesn't explain which variable > is set in a typical installation of the compiler I posted the > question below to the Sun Studio C++ forum to help us decide > how to proceed: > http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=111021 > > Martin ChangeLog: * sunpro.config (SHARED_LDFLAGS): Add -R$(LIBDIR) switch so $(LIBDIR) is included in the runtime library search path of linked executables.
