Description tropikhajma 2012-01-16 23:16:04 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Solaris

build of kde-workspace 4.7.97 fails with the below error.

This is because variable length arrays are not part of the C++ standard and
Studio does not support this gcc-specific extension.

related issues: 276559, 256647

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
try to build kde-workspace 4.7.97

Actual Results:  
"/opt/test2/packages/BUILD/kde-workspace-4.7.97/kinfocenter/Modules/samba/ksmbstatus.cpp", line 124: Error: An integer constant expression is required within the array subscript operator.


Expected Results:  
builds fine

Solaris 11, Solaris Studio 12.3

Note that most developers have no Sun Studio. So, if you really want this to be fixed, provide a patch.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Dear Bug Submitter,

This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

We don't really support Solaris anymore.
