Hi,

I am trying to install OpenEXR on Solaris10 and am facing the following
error when I try to compile it:

*** - Your version of FLTK is too old. The exrdisplay
*** program requires FLTK 1.1 or higher.
*** - Your FLTK library was compiled with a different C++

*** The exrdisplay program will not be built because it depends on

Do a 'make clean' first, before doing the 'make' and 'make install'.

Looks like there's a left over lib file from a previous compile
on a different platform or different version of the OS, causing the
above error about an invalid archive.

Another good clue is that it jumped straight into the lib archiving,
without actually running any of the compile commands, indicating the
.o's are probably still left over from the previous compile as well
as the lib.

What arguments are you passing to configure?

Also, please send me the output of this command:

file /usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/../../..//libstdc++.la

thanks

I am just saying ./configure
And the result of the command is
bash-3.00$ file
/usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/../../..//libstdc++.la
empty file

I believe this means that your GNU libstdc++ is not installed
correctly. That should be a file which contains some text that
describes to the linker how to link the real library.

Can somebody who has g++ installed on a Solaris system please confirm
that? I don't have a Solaris machine to test this.
