Hi Jyothi,
I'm sending a copy of this EMail to the list, in case someone might be
interested in the results.

I simply tried the following this evening:

 - install SunStudio11
 - fetch current FreeTDS CVS
 - fix the first line in 'autogen.sh'; in fact, this is _not_ a
   Bourne-shell script!, this script requires Bash for proper
   execution ....  at least this is my experience
 - run 'autogen.sh'
 - set the following flags:
   CC="cc -xtarget=native64"
   CXX="CC -xtarget=native64"
   CPP="cc -xtarget=native64 -E"
   LD=ld
 - re-run 'configure' with the appropriate command line flags
 - run make
 - have fun !

A quick test with 'tsql' worked fine for me,

        Martin.
