NAME
README.linux - Perl version 5 on Linux systems
DESCRIPTION
This document describes various features of Linux that will
affect how Perl version 5 (hereafter just Perl) is compiled
and/or runs.
Experimental Support for Sun Studio Compilers for Linux OS
Sun Microsystems has released a port of their Sun Studio
compiliers for Linux. As of November 2005, only an alpha
version has been released. Until a release of these
compilers is made, support for compiling Perl with these
compiler experimental.
Also, some special instructions for building Perl with Sun
Studio on Linux. Following the normal "Configure", you have
to run make as follows:
LDLOADLIBS=-lc make
"LDLOADLIBS" is an environment variable used by the linker
to link modules "/ext" modules to glibc. Currently, that
environment variable is not getting populated by a
combination of "Config" entries and "ExtUtil::MakeMaker".
While there may be a bug somewhere in Perl's configuration
or "ExtUtil::MakeMaker" causing the problem, the most likely
cause is an incomplete understanding of Sun Studio by this
author. Further investigation is needed to get this working
better.
