Depends on the language. It should work for C just fine, otherwise you
wouldn't be able to run old apps on new Solaris releases compiled with
newer Solaris compilers.
If you're using C++, you probably need to compile with the -compat=4
flag on 6.1.
If you want more help, post more details, including exact error
messages/failure states, not just "it wouldn't work".

1. compiler warnings going from WorkShop 4.2 to WorkShop 6 update 1
We are in the process of re-compiling our programs using WorkShop 6
update 1 and I keep getting a lot of annoying warning messages. One
is:
"String literal converted to char* in initialization"
and others are complaining about function pointers as arguments to
functions, like for signal, thr_create, and atexit. A typical warning
states:
Warning (Anachronism): Formal argument 2 or type extern "C"
void(*)(int) in call to std::signal(int, extern "C" void (*)(int)) is
being passed void(*)(int).
The calls are being made in a C++ program.
Is there anyway to correct this warnings? I used the "-w" option for
the compiler to silence the string literal warnings, but I am afraid
it is silencing other warnings as well. I am assuming that the
"extern C" warning is coming up because it is a C++ program. I know
they are just warnings, but I like to have clean compiles. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
