Description S.Doran 2005-07-27 03:38:21 CEST 
I have recently downloaded Geant4 7.1 (Unix tar format) from
http://wwwasd.web.cern.ch/wwwasd/geant4/geant4.html. When I compile it under
Solaris 5.8, I get the following error message:

Compiling G4PiNuclearCrossSection.cc ...
"/opt/SUNWspro/WS6U2/include/CC/Cstd/./memory", line 184: Error: Type name
expected instead of "T".
"/opt/SUNWspro/WS6U2/include/CC/Cstd/./memory", line 520:     Where: While
instantiating
"__rwstd::__destroy<CLHEP::HepLorentzVector>(CLHEP::HepLorentzVector*)".
"/opt/SUNWspro/WS6U2/include/CC/Cstd/./memory", line 520:     Where:

Error 1

Although there are several other compiler warnings, the rest of the compilation
went smoothly, leading to the following final output:

Making libname.map ...
  Reading library name map file...
  Reading dependency files...
  WARNING: It seems there is nothing after ':' in dependency file

  Is this a fatal error, or can I proceed to use the installation?

Can you please specify what compiler version you're using ?

I'm afraid you need to upgrade your compiler to CC-5.4 at least.
Geant4 will not compile on earlier versions of the CC compiler.
