When I compile my codes using cc, I was told that language optional
software package not installed. How to deal with this? I know someone else
can compile these same codes with same machine. Do I need to set some ENV?

My machine is Sunos5.

I'm assuming you're using "cc" to compile. Try "gcc" C/C++ is a 'language
optional' package on Sun machines. gcc is GNU, which open source and has
nothing to do with Sun.

To be or not to be: that is the question, whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.

Why don't you ask the person that can compile the same code what he/she's
doing to compile it?

Solaris does not include a C compiler with the operating system. It is an
optional package that can be purchased from Sun at GREAT expense.

The other person is probably using "gcc" or the GNU C Compiler, instead of cc.

This is probably more of a question for comp.sys.sun.admin or another
Sun-specific newsgroup. Then again, you could have saved time and asked the
"someone else" what they were doing to compile...
