Sun Studio 12 support for Solaris 10 3/05

807578Jun 14 2007 — edited Jun 22 2007
The Sun Studio 12 http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/features/sysreq.jsp page mentions Solaris 9 and 10 1/06 are supported. Will Sun Studio 12 support Solaris 10 3/05 in the future?

Why is Solaris 10 3/05 not supported or at least a patch provided to allow Sun Studio 12 to support 3.05?

SS12 should work just fine on later releases of Solaris 10 updates.

To extend Chris' answer: it is generally a good idea to apply latest patches to Sun Studio especially when upgrading OS. The list of patches for Sun Studio 12 will be available at

Solaris 10 3/05 was released before Solaris 10 1/06. So, I assume Solaris 10 3/05 is not supported but Solaris 10 1/06 and later are supported. Is that incorrect?

I'm not really sure about the numbers. Solaris 10 is supported, but I believe you have to have certain patches installed.

Please refer to release notes for more info:

I have done a poor job of explaining. The Sun Studio 12 Release Notes do specify Solaris 10 1/06. Read them. Why would Sun specify that release unless Solaris 10 3/05 was not supported? See http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/support/support_matrix.jsp and http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/documentation/ss12/release_notes.html#SystemReqs

Sun has gone to the trouble to list Solaris OS 9 and 10 1/06. It is not a matter of applying patches to become 10 1/06 from 3/05. It requires an upgrade.

Then I guess I was wrong and Studio 12 is not supported on 10 1/06. It doesn't mean that it won't work though.
