<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0mm 0mm 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><FONT size=2>I have used
KDevelop on x86 Solaris for several moths. Recently I installed it on SPARC
Solaris (Netra T1, Solaris 8, KDE 2.1, KDevelop 1.4). I haven't used KDevelop on
SPARC really intensively yet but it seems to work
normally.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0mm 0mm 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><FONT size=2>I also tried
a trial version of SUN Forte C++. Of course, even not mentioning the price of
Sun Forte, as a development environment KDevelop is much more convenient, in
spite <SPAN class=034304405-27112001>of </SPAN>all its bugs and <SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0mm 0mm 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><FONT size=2>However,
KDevelop seems to be tightly connected to GNU tools. Though GNU C++ is a nice
tool and considerably closer to ANSI standard than SUN Forte C++ compiler it
lacks the 64-bit support (at least as far as I can
understand).<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

any conclusion. Moreover, I’d like <SPAN class=034304405-27112001>to

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>KDEVELOP Team,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I just discovered your product as I was upgrading
my Mandrake LINUX from 7.2 to 8.1. I like the product. I am used
to using the Microsoft Visual C++ professional tool and this has the same
functionality. I use a Sun SPARC Ultra 5 box using Solaris OS.
Will KDEVELOP work on the Solaris OS?</FONT></P>
