Porting Solaris applications to Linux
 

Hi All,
I am a student working on a migration project. Could anybody please suggest a suitable tool for porting the Solaris application to Linux Os. Is there any ready made tool available. I found one with IBM and HP .. but those are all for their customers and couldn't get one. Any tool in Open source. Please help.

Thanks and Regards,
GG.

Uh - "vi makefile", change "cc" to "gcc" and recompile?

Well, of the many things you must do, one is stripping "-lsocket -lnsl -lresolv" on Makefiles, if the project contains networking code. Linux emulates some API from Solaris. I don't know of any tools to do this, so I guess you must find each case and solve it with the added benefit that you will know what's going on. Try asking jlliagre on the Solaris forum.
