Building unixODBC on Solaris
----------------------------
This should just work, however I have had the following helpfull
hints sent to me by David Brown of Starquest. The suggested change
has been made to the code in __info.c
"Last fall, I had problems running on Solaris 7, because my system did have
an iconv conversion between ISO8859-1 and UCS-2.
I discovered two things:
* the missing iconv tables are available by a patch for Solaris 7 (there is
also a corresponding patch for Solaris 8, that fixes a lot in this area -
seems recommended to use that as well)
* Solaris uses the name 8859-1 in its tables rather than ISO8859-1 or
ISO-8859-1.
So what I've done is:
1) make the following change to DriverManager/__info.c:
diff __info.c __info.c.orig
385c385
< char *asc[] = { "char", "ISO8859-1", "ISO-8859-1", "8859-1", "ASCII", NULL
};
---
>> char *asc[] = { "char", "ISO8859-1", "ISO-8859-1", "ASCII", NULL };
2) tell customers to apply the following Solaris patches:
Solaris 7:
Patch-ID# 112689-02
Keywords: UTF-8 ICONV
Synopsis: SunOS 5.7: UTF-8 locale ICONV patch
Date: Aug/28/2002
Solaris 8:
Patch-ID# 113261-01
Keywords: UTF-8 ICONV
Synopsis: SunOS 5.8: UTF-8 locale ICONV patch
Date: Oct/11/2002
this has since been superceded by 11326-02, but I think unixODBC should
function fine with 113261-01
Patch-ID# 113261-02
Keywords: UTF-8 ICONV
Synopsis: SunOS 5.8: UTF-8 locale ICONV patch
Date: Feb/21/2003"
