Re: CYGWIN To Solaris question-progress

Thanks a lot for your reply. I think I found those libraries at
http://www.sunfreeware.com/solaris_2.5_list.html#gcc2951 :

1)  libstdc++-2.8.1.-local.gz. GNU libstdc++, the C++ library required by
the GNU C++ compiler 2.8.1, g++. Installs in /usr/local.

 Is this the one I need ? After unziping the first one I got
libstdc++-2.8.1-local, one big file. I think maybe it is the installation of
the lib.a, necessary to compile my code for Solaris . Do you know how to
unzip it on my Cygwin machine ?

2) libstdc++-2.8.1.tar.gz   Source Code.

This looks like the source code for the first one. Is this the one I need ?
I gess those are the includes necessary to build my gcc.

Thanks in advance for your help.
