Can't compile

[Layne Meier]

I am having a problem trying to get Python 2.4.2 to compile on my Sun
Solaris 10 system. I've even tried adding CC=gcc to the configure file
or even tried running the command ./configure --with-gcc

This is what is happening:

MAILBOT:root:8ython-2.4.2:# ./configure
checking MACHDEP... sunos5
checking EXTRAPLATDIR...
checking for --without-gcc... no
checking for --with-cxx=<compiler>... no
checking for c++... c++
checking for C++ compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C++ compiler works... configure: error: cannot run
C++ compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.


Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Just pass "--without-cxx" to configure.

Here i jump into this thread.
With this option the configure script runs well.
But then i get a compile error in complexobject.

I'm using Solaris in 32-Bit Mode on my AthlonX2.

so what did the compiler say ?

have you tried googling for relevant portions of the error message ?

could this be the problem you're seeing ?
