StackThreads/MP: version 0.77 User's Guide

1.2: Platforms

Currently, StackThreads/MP is running under the following platforms:

• 1: Solaris on SPARC (v8+ or v9) processors (currently, 32 bits only)
• 2: Solaris on x86 processors
• 3: Linux on x86 processors
• 4: Linux on Alpha processors
• 5: IRIX on MIPS processors (currently, 32 bits only)
• 6: Digital UNIX ver 4.0 on Alpha processors
• 7: Windows NT on x86 processors.

The following software must be installed on your platform.

• 1: GNU C compiler (version 2 required)
• 2: GNU awk
• 3: GNU make

GNU C compiler and GNU awk are mandatory. We do not recommend you to think about how to dispense with them. GNU make is somewhat optional but we use `ifeq' notations to write our Makefiles. Be sure these commands are invoked by typing gcc, gawk, and gmake (or make), respectively. Also be sure that nm (either native or GNU) works correctly.
