[csw-maintainers] need help with C++ linker error from Sun's linker

[John Ellson]

If I compile liblasi (mgar/pkg/liblasi/trunk) using g++ it compiles and 
links without problem.

If I use Sun's tools  (remove the line: "CXX=/opt/csw/gcc4/bin/g++ \" 
from the Makefile)
then I get this error:

/opt/studio/SOS11/SUNWspro/bin/CC     -KPIC

char*const,LASi::FontStyle,LASi::FontWeight,LASi::FontVariant,LASi::FontStretch) 
CMakeFiles/example0.dir/MissingGlyphExample.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to example0




There's something odd about the "const char*const"   but I don't know if 
thats related.



Does anyone have any idea what the problem is, and how to fix it, or 
work around it so as to be able to use Sun's tools?
