[omniORB] Cannot compute sizeof (char) when running ./configure on solaris

[Andrew Knapp]

Hey guys-

 

I noticed several posts regard the error message:

 

Cannot compute sizeof (char)

 

When trying to run configure on my Solaris 8 box.  For me, the problem
was easily solved by installing the "libiconv " solaris package (free
ware package that can be found on Sunfreeware.com).  This installs some
shared libs into /usr/local/lib (libcharset.a, libcharset.la,
libcharset.so, libcharset.so.1, libcharset.so.1.0.0) that are needed for
the configure to complete properly.

 

I also had to set my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib like so:

 

# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks,

 

ADK
