Hi All,
I am very much new to programing on Solaris. I would have to work on NSAPI filter . Can anyone point me to some informative document , article or book that can help me to have a kick start on developing NSAPI Filter .
Thanks

Assuming your plugin is for the sun web server 6.1, http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/817-6252-10

What is the difference in developing NSAPI filter using Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 on Solaris SPARC
AND
developing NSAPI filter application using Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 on Red Hat Linux AS 3.

If I develop NSAPI filter on Red Hat Linux AS 3 and port the same to Solaris. Would there be any difference or would there be any cross platform issue. If yes , then kindly make me aware as I am completely new to NSAPI programming on both the platforms.
Thanks

There should be no difference on the NSAPI side.
Differences can exist in the library generation phase (compiler and linker options), and in parts of your code unrelated to NSAPI.

Thanks for your reply. It will be very nice if you can list down few issues that can come while porting the code from rh to solaris for NSAPI implementation.
One issue I can forsee is :
1) Thread management

As I said, there are *no* known potential issues specific to NSAPI I'm aware of.

Beyond that, porting from one O/S to another can always lead to problems.
There's a tool freely available that can help identifying those between Linux and Solaris at:

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me what all are the availaible IDE's on Solaris ( sparc ) system for development of C and C++ applications.
Thanks

I use vi and make

but if you really want an IDE, I guess netbeans (with a plug-in in development), eclipse, kdevelop, anjuta and Sun Studio 9 can fit.

PS: next time, open a new thread when your posting is unrelated to the current one (here NSAPI).

thanks a bunch. I will take care of your point next time.
