Rating

4 points (out of 4)

Rating scheme: 4 points means the source builds seamlessly on Solaris Express (OpenSolaris). Points are subtracted as follows:

• Minus 1 if the source doesn't come with an automated way to localize the build (e.g. configure)
• Minus 1 if the source won't compile with Sun's cc (this usually means the code is gcc-centric)
• Minus 1 if a minor patch is required, or
• Minus 2 if a major patch(es) is required
