(1) requirements: CSWautomake >= 1.11.1
Important Note: Because of changes in VLC making xcb mandatory, video output modules relying on X11/XCB can't work until Solaris ships libxcb. Video output is currently done using SDL and will open on a separate window. Blastwave latest SDL builds uses xcb and are also unusable (referenced by sdl/aout). Configuring --disable-sdl makes builds possible, but you'll loose the sdl video output module too.
OpenSolaris / OpenIndiana
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): Either use the "LD_ALTEXEC=/opt/gnu/bin/gld" environment variable, or 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 not contain: --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --without-gnu-ld )
An alternative to LD_ALTEXEC would be to symlink /usr/ccs/bin/ld to /opt/gnu/bin/gld
Config & Build process required packages
Blastwave's additional packages
CSWfaac CSWfaad2 CSWffmpeglib CSWgcc4corert CSWgcc4g++rt CSWggettext CSWiconv CSWisaexec CSWlame CSWlibogg CSWlibxcbdev CSWncurses CSWpkgutil CSWstl4 CSWsunmath CSWtheora CSWvorbis CSWx264 CSWxvid CSWzlib
Setting up your environment
For Sun Studio
export PATH=/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/sunstudio12.1/bin:/opt/csw/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/ucb export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/sunstudio12.1/lib:/usr/openwin/lib/X11/:/opt/kde4/lib export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/kde4/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/csw/lib/pkgconfig/ export CFLAGS="-D _XPG4_2 -D __SunOS -D __STDC_ISO_10646__ -D __EXTENSIONS__ -features=extensions -fast" export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS export CCC=/opt/sunstudio12.1/bin/CC CC=/opt/sunstudio12.1/bin/cc MAKE=gmake
For GCC
Untested. See Solaris/Sparc.
Configure
Bootsrap has no problems since Osol uses bash.
./configure --disable-libgcrypt --disable-remoteosd --disable-glx --disable-lua --disable-mad --disable-swscale --disable-postproc --disable-a52 --disable-fribidi --with-gnu-ld=no --enable-qt4 --disable-xcb
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
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.

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)
Qt4 Interface module
Trolltech only supports SunStudio builds. QT4 Interface is mainly C++, and creates ABI dependencies with Qt libs. Kde-solaris (bionicmutton) project packages offers the Sun ABI. If you wish to build the Qt4 Module, you need to build vlc with SunStudio, or build your own Qt library with GCC.
You should run into a without prototype 'wcsstr' issue in /opt/sunstudio12.1/prod/include/CC/Cstd/rw/traits Only fix known: Replace wcsstr with wcswcs in that file.
libxcb
Libxcb must currently be disabled or you'll need to use custome build as there's no official support. It might make it into the official repository as the package went past the fasttrack process.
Fully patched code repository
All patches are on this fork. (until they make it into the main repository)
git clone git://repo.or.cz/vlc/solaris.git vlcsolaris
Patches on master branch are kept on top of this fork using rebase and forced pushes. Don't expect to pull later updates without rebasing.
