Required Solaris Studio version for jdk9 ? (original) (raw)

Hi,

the current common/doc/building.md [1] file mentions Studio 12 Update 4 with several patches as the minimal build requirement for jdk9 on Solaris. Is this information still up to date and do you plan to use the mentioned versions for the Java 9 GA build?

Does somebody know how I can find out the exact patch levels of the installed Studio compiler/backend versions if I'm using a version of Studio which isn't installed locally but on a network share? I tried "-V -verbose=version" but it only shows:

$ CC -V -verbose=version CC: Sun C++ 5.13 SunOS_sparc 2014/10/20

I've also tried the 'version' tool with the same result:

$ version cc cc: Sun C 5.13 SunOS_sparc 2014/10/20

The version tool recommends using pkginfo/pkg to get the exact version of the installed studio components, but this obviously doesn't work for a network installation.

Thank you and best regards, Volker
