Do I have to build Ice in 64 bit mode?(on Solaris 10)
Hello, I'm freshman to Ice Building, ask a simple question here.
I want to build Ice in my Solaris 10 sprac OS, and the OS is 64 bit. So, do I have to build Ice in 64 bit mode?
The message I get from "INSTALL.SOLARIS" as follows:
To build Ice in 64 bit mode, you need to do the following:
- Obtain or build all the third-party dependencies, and put the 64 bit
libraries in the "lib/sparcv9" directories. For example, put
Berkeley DB 64 bit libraries in $DB_HOME/lib/sparcv9.
- Set the environment variable LP64 to yes, as shown below:
$ export LP64=yes
- Build and test as described above.
Do I have to do as described above? Or I can have a choice to do it or not?
Thanks for help!

Hi,
Solaris supports both 32 and 64 bit builds on its 64 bit machines. You can choose whether you want to build Ice as 32 or 64 bit. Alternatively, you can just download the prebuilt binaries for Solaris Sparc from the Ice download page, which includes both the 32 and 64 bit binaries.
