Very Computer

Hi !,

    Could some one help me out in  compatibility issue between solaris
2.4 and solaris 2.6.
    I am getting  the socket related error (specifically my application
server socket status is
    showing as BOUND instead of LISTEN when examine thru
    netstatus -a | grep <socket number>).

    Basically i am tring to run a application in solaris 2.6 which is
being compiled in solaris 2.4.
    Does the application build in 2.4 has compatibility with 2.6?. or Do
i need to installed any
    patch over 2.6  to  get a compatibility?.

    FYI, the other application which is build in 2.4 (not having any
socket related stuff)
    is not at all giving any output in 2.6, it seems to be  hanging in
the loading of library
   (which is build in 2.4 ) itself.

    Compile Env:

      >>uname -a
             SunOS dmsolb1 5.4 Generic_101945-51 sun4m sparc
      >> CC -V
           CC: SC4.0 18 Oct 1995 C++ 4.1
         >>what /usr/ucb/ld:
               ld.sh   1.3     93/01/11 SMI

    Run Env:

           >>showrev :
               Kernel version: SunOS 5.6 Generic 105181-16 June 1999
           >> what /usr/ucb/ld
                   /usr/ucb/ld:
                      ld.sh   1.4     94/10/24 SMI
           >> CC -V
               CC: SC4.0 18 Oct 1995 C++ 4.1

Thanks in advance ,

   with Regards,

      FYI, another application which build on 2.4 (not having any socket
releated stuff) is seems to
      be* when run on solaris 2.6.It is* at library
lodading , the libraries used in the
      application are also build in2.4.

Only if it is dynamically linked, not static linked (underlying
socket mechanism changed, but library interfaces didn't).

Did you really mean to use the BSD ld?
You should have /usr/ccs/bin in your path before /usr/ucb unless
you are deliberately building BSD-style, which seems unlikely for
C++ source.
You should be using CC to do the linking anyway, not ld directly.
