Build VLC on Solaris / OpenSolaris
OpenSolaris
Mostly follows Solaris instructions.
Note that despite the configure stage could be configured to call GNU's ld, the official gcc build always rely on collect2 and call the Sun linker.
If you get undefined retain-symbol-file errors, your path haven't been fixed for the configure step (must look into /usr/ccs/bin/ first) and the build process is applying gnu's options to sun's linker.
To use GNU's linker (optional): use a custom gcc build to use /opt/gnu/bin/gld. (vlc would fail on some gld only options like retain-symbols-file)
( your gcc -v output must no contain: --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --without-gnu-ld )
Another, and unclean, solution would be to symlink /usr/ccs/bin/ld to /opt/gnu/bin/gld
Solaris 10, x86
To be done.
Solaris 10, SPARC
Sparc builds outside GCC, are currently unstable.
- Many bugs fixed (until now).
- all shells must point to /usr/xpg4/bin/sh instead of /bin/sh (not fully posix) (tip: CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/xpg4/bin/sh)
- bootstrapping requires to change subprocess shell (see patch below)
- filesystem.c needs to be patched for NAME_MAX
- skins2 module needs to be disabled (another NAME_MAX problem & other)
Blocking:
- Lots of if (p==NULL) msgDbg("foo %s", p) in the code segfaults in multiple places. Developers have assumed that %s is fixed as "(null)" like Glibc does. Not available on sparc.
- crashes at network/httpd.c at poll() level.

Setting up your environment
For Sun Studio Assuming compiler in /opt/sunstudio12.1 and some customly built packages in /opt/vlc

Using GCC Assuming some customly built packages in /opt/vlc

Bootstrapping
Boostrap script needs to be able to run same subshells as parent. If bootstrap fails on genmf, then the subshell has fallen back to the default /bin/sh which isn't posix compliant. In that case, you need to patch as follow:
@@ -97,7 +97,7 @@ AC_DEFUN([PKG_CHECK_MODULES],[ifelse([\$4], , :, [\$4])]) EOF fi -modules/genmf `sed -ne 's,modules/\(.*\)/Makefile,\1,p' configure.ac` +$SHELL modules/genmf `sed -ne 's,modules/\(.*\)/Makefile,\1,p' configure.ac`
ACLOCAL_ARGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal/" export ACLOCAL_ARGS /usr/xpg4/bin/sh bootstrap
Configure
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh configure --with-a52=/opt/csw/ --with-mad=/opt/csw/ --disable-libgcrypt --disable-remoteosd --disable-skins2 --disable-glx
--with-gnu-ld might also be required (check configure result!)
Sun Studio: Add --disable-qt4 if required. (Qt 4.6.0 Currently fails)
