Chilkat Release Notes

Install the binary distribution by extracting the files from the compressed archive. For example:

(64-bit)
gzip -d chilkat-9.3.1-x86_64-solaris10.tar.gz
tar -xf chilkat-9.3.1-x86_64-solaris10.tar

(32-bit)
gzip -d chilkat-9.3.1-x86-solaris10.tar.gz
tar -xf chilkat-9.3.1-x86-solaris10.tar

(SPARC)
gzip -d chilkat-9.3.1-sparc-solaris10.tar.gz
tar -xf chilkat-9.3.1-sparc-solaris10.tar

This will create a 'chilkat-9.3.1-x86_64-solaris10' sub-directory containing the Chilkat C++ binary distribution. Header (.h) files are located in the "include" subdirectory. The static and shared libraries are located in the "lib" subdirectory.

Compiling and Linking a 32-bit (Intel processor) Application using the Static Library

The following example demonstrates compiling and linking a C++ program using the 32-bit Chilkat static library.

#!/bin/bash -ev
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m32 -O3 -Werror -c -fmessage-length=0 "ChilkatTest.cpp"
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m32 ChilkatTest.o /home/myUser/lib32/libchilkat-9.3.1.a -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -o ChilkatTest

Compiling and Linking a 64-bit (Intel processor) Application using the Static Library

The following example demonstrates compiling and linking a C++ program using the 64-bit Chilkat static library.

#!/bin/bash -ev
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m64 -O3 -Werror -c -fmessage-length=0 "ChilkatTest.cpp"
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m64 ChilkatTest.o /home/myUser/lib64/libchilkat-9.3.1.a -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -o ChilkatTest

Compiling and Linking a SPARC Application using the Static Library

The following example demonstrates compiling and linking a C++ program using the SPARC Chilkat static library.

#!/bin/bash -ev
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m64 -O3 -Werror -c -fmessage-length=0 "ChilkatTest.cpp"
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m64 ChilkatTest.o /home/myUser/lib64/libchilkat-9.3.1.a -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -o ChilkatTest

Compiling and Linking an Application using the Shared Library

The following example demonstrates compiling and linking a C++ program using the 32-bit Chilkat shared library. The 32-bit "libchilkat-9.3.1.so" shared library should be located in a directory listed in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

To compile and link a 64-bit application, use the "-m64" compiler option instead of "-m32".

#!/bin/bash -ev
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m32 -O3 -Werror -c -fmessage-length=0 "ChilkatTest.cpp"
/usr/sfw/bin/g++ -m32 ChilkatTest.o -lchilkat-9.3.1 -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -o ChilkatTest

Setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH search path

If using the .so shared library, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH may need to be set.

In the following shell commands, the <chilkat-path> denotes the full path to the chilkat-9.3.1-x86_64-solaris10 directory.

For Bourne Shell, K Shell or Bash, type:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<chilkat-path>/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

For C Shell, type:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "<chilkat-path>/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

The following functionality is not implemented in the Solaris build:

• PPMD compression (not in 64-bit builds, but available in 32-bit builds)
• RAR
• Self-Extracting EXE
