The version of Root2.23 distributed from our web site for Solaris2.6 has been build with CC version 4. We had many requests in the past weeks to provide a version that can run with the latest Sun compiler CC5. We have now access to a machine with this new compiler and we hope to be able to generate a version of Root for this compiler in the near future. We already made many changes to avoid warnings in the Root code itself. However, we need to introduce changes in CINT to generate code with "const char*" instead of "char*" in many places in the dictionaries. This new Solaris compiler is very strict (this is OK). Moving to this new compiler will also requires many changes in the users code. Rene Brun
