RE: GCC Compiling Issue

["NAMIAS, JOHN D CTR USAF AFMC AFLCMC/HIBD" <john dot namias dot ctr at us dot af dot mil>]

Good morning all!

First of all -- thanks for being patient with me.

Well -- here it is, almost a month later, and I still haven't been able to compile GCC 6.3.0.  I have made progress though.  I have updated or installed all of the prerequisites that I could determine so the rest of the utilities/tools should be up-to-date.  The only one that evades me seems to be ELF.

I'm following the instructions laid out in https://gcc.gnu.org/install/index.html and a few other sites.  The error I'm getting is for Undefined Symbols.  I'm guessing that means I'm missing a library somewhere.  Or have an incorrect version at a minimum.  Below is the last part of the "make" dialog.  You'll see the message about "wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64" and "g++: unrecognized option `-no-pie'" there too.   The current compiler version is 3.4.3.  I thought that perhaps I'm just trying to take too big of an upgrade leap & might need to do this in stages.   If y'all could point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance & have a wonderful Wednesday!
John

I have run the " ./Configure solaris64-sparcv9-gcc" and followed up with the "make".  During the "make" process I see "gcc: unrecognized option `-pthread'" at the end of each command-line processed.  (see below)  I should tell y'all that this is a Solaris 10 OS on a Sun server.  The version of GCC that is installed is GCC 3.4.3 (also below).  My question is -- Will upgrading to the newest version of GCC correct these errors?  If not -- do you have any suggestions on how to correct them?

Ancient versions of GCC for Solaris only understand -pthreads not -pthread. More recent releases (anything since GCC 4.1 onwards) accept either option, with the same meaning.

So you could either adjust the build process to use -pthreads instead of -pthread, or update to a newer GCC.
