I am trying to build the Channel Archiver using g++ on Solaris 8 and I get
the following error

I tried adding: 
#include <string.h>
to the file.  However, this did not help.

I wrote this short program; compiled it; and it worked fine:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void main()
{
	char *a;
	a=strdup("strdup actually works\n");
	printf("%s",a);

}

I am not sure why it thinks strdup is undeclared.
If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Tim
