Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

I built base-3.14.9 on solaris 10 / sparc64
(EPICS_HOST_ARCH=solaris-sparc64)
with the goal to use the CA client library
(BTW: a make target to just build the
necessary pieces to get a CA client would
be great) in combination with MATLAB
and experienced the following problem:

MATLAB 2007a (a 64-bit executable)
apparently uses the 'stlport' library
which is incompatible with Cstd that
is used by EPICS.

)

IMO, it would be desirable to make
the choice of C++ std library configurable.

REMOVE: addition of -lCrun -lc -lCstd from OP_SYS_LDLIBS
(compiler seems to know what run-time libs to use)

FWIW
-- Till

PS: I still get quite a few warnings, some of them
'Conversion of 64 bit type to "unsigned" causes truncation'
some of the code seems to be not yet 100% 64b-clean.
