Request for Assistance with ICU 74.1 Compilation on Solaris Studio

[Omesharma]

Hi Team,

We are currently upgrading our ICU C++ library from version 70.1 to 74.1. Our target systems include

Linux 7 (GCC 4.8.5) and Oracle Solaris 11.4 (SPARC) with GCC 13.2.0.

While ICU 70.1 compiled successfully on both platforms, we are encountering compilation errors with ICU 74.1 on Solaris when using Solaris Studio (12.6).

Background Context:

Linux (GCC): We encountered a single error related to std::max_align_t, which was resolved by changing it to max_align_t.

Solaris (GCC): No issues were found when compiling with GCC.

Solaris (Solaris Studio): Despite success with ICU 70.1, we are facing multiple compilation errors with ICU 74.1 as we are fixing them incrementally.

Version : CC: Studio 12.6 Sun C++ 5.15 SunOS_sparc Patch 152715-09 2021/07/22

When using the default GCC compiler specified in the ICU Makefile, no issues arise during compilation on Solaris.

cd to ICU source folder and executed ./configure script

However, for development purposes, Solaris Studio is being used, specifically CC: Studio 12.6 Sun C++ 5.15 SunOS_sparc Patch 152715-09 2021/07/22.

It's worth noting that when using ICU version 70.1 with this Solaris Studio setup, no problems were encountered

Errors Encountered so far when compiled ICU 74.1 on Solaris studio:

1.

We require your assistance in resolving these compilation issues with Solaris Studio. Does ICU 74.1 officially support compilation

with Solaris Studio? Any guidance or patches would be greatly appreciated.

Omesh

ICU 74 requires a compiler that supports the C++17 standard:

https://icu.unicode.org/download/74

But the Studio 12.6 compiler only supports the C++14 standard:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E77782_01/html/E77789/bkabg.html

So it's to be expected that compiling ICU 74 with Studio 12.6 won't work.

Oops, I was one version off there, it should be ICU 75 that requires
C++17. But the error messages you got all seem related to standards
compliance, so that's where I'd recommend you start looking for what's
not working.

https://icu.unicode.org/download/74

ICU4C Platform Support

ICU4C requires C++11 and has been tested with up to C++20.

We routinely test on recent versions of Linux, macOS, and Windows.

We accept patches for other platforms.

Thanks, Fredrick, Markus, and Rob.

Thank you for your prompt response. I agree with your suggestion to use GCC instead of Solaris Studio for the Solaris platform. However, our product is entirely built using Solaris Studio, and we have been relying on the ICU library for over a decade, generating .so files with Solaris Studio.

Is there any possibility that the ICU 74.1 team could assist in making the library compatible with Solaris Studio (as it worked fine up to ICU version 70.1)? While we attempted to resolve compilation errors one by one, we found the process to be endless. Ultimately, we had to remove the latest C++ features fom ICU 74.1 code, which defeats the purpose of upgrading.

Omesh

So, perhaps the pertinent question would be:  Can Solaris Studio support C++11 – the answer is a qualified “yes”, in that to support C++11 Solaris Studio requires a different set of runtime libraries, which tends to make anything built with it incompatible with binaries build without c++11 flags.

Most of these “vendor” compilers had some hacky way to support c++11 and later standards, but if Solaris is your target, you’re much better off using gcc.  We were building binaries with gcc-9 until we dropped support for Solaris.

We don't actually have such resources, but I feel something of a
personal affinity to Solaris and was curious so I took a quick look at
it and with the attached patch applied I was able to successfully
compile ICU4C 74.1 on Solaris using Studio 12.6, like this:

$ tar xzf icu4c-74_1-src.tgz
$ cd icu
$ patch -p1 -i ../icu4c-74-1-solaris-1.patch
$ cd source
$ PATH="/opt/developerstudio12.6/bin:$PATH" CXXFLAGS='-std=c++11'
./runConfigureICU Solaris
$ gmake

Hi Fredrik,

Thanks for the inputs.

I tried the same steps but am still getting the same error.

That looks like you haven't set CXXFLAGS='-std=c++11'.

To make this easier, I'd recommend you to start out by following the
steps that I listed exactly, including both applying the patch file
and setting CXXFLAGS.

Hi.

You should either export the variables or set them on the line you run  ./runConfigureICU

I have no Solaris to test, but on all my unix-like boxes, non-exported variables don't get into the environment of child processes

That's not the same, when you split that one commandline into two
lines the first line will set local variables, which then won't be
passed to the command executed on the second line.

HI Fredrik and Bastien,

I ran 

export PATH="/comms/tools/apps/solarisstudio126_sparc/bin:$PATH"

export  CXXFLAGS='-std=c++11'

 ./runConfigureICU Solaris

Path is already applied

I validate reconfigure set the required flag 

```

./runConfigureICU Solaris
export CPP= CC=/comms/tools/apps/solarisstudio126_sparc/bin/cc CXX=/comms/tools/apps/solarisstudio126_sparc/bin/CC CPPFLAGS= CFLAGS=-xO1 -xlibmil  CXXFLAGS=-O4 -xlibmil -std=c++11 LDFLAGS= MAKE=
Running ./configure   for SOLARIS using Sun's CC compiler

ENDS with

ICU for C/C++ 74.1 is ready to be built.
=== Important Notes: ===
Data Packaging: library
 This means: ICU data will be linked with ICU. A shared data library will be built.
 To locate data: ICU will use the linked data library. If linked with the stub library located in stubdata/, the application can use udata_setCommonData() or set a data path to override.
Building ICU: Use a GNU make such as /usr/bin/gmake to build ICU.
checking the version of "/usr/bin/gmake"... 4.4.1 (we wanted at least 3.80)
ok

If the result of the above commands looks okay to you, go to the directory
source in the ICU distribution to build ICU. Please remember that ICU needs
GNU make to build properly...

That is what gmake would print if it was run in a directory where a
build had already been performed.

To make it easier to pinpoint where things go wrong, I recommend you
to start from scratch in an empty directory, extracting the archive,
applying the patch, each and every time.

  Thank you, Fredrik, Markus, Rob and Bastien

The issue is resolved. After deleting the existing source and performing a fresh clone, followed by the provided steps and patch application, the process is now functioning correctly. I will proceed to initiate a build using the product Makefile, which will internally configure and execute gmake for ICU.

 I appreciate your time and prompt assistance. I will keep you informed of any unexpected issues, but as of now it looks good.

Regards,

Omesh
