Do the installs as root.
Use gnutar (/usr/sfw/bin/gtar).

Download a solaris 10 virtual appliance from
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris/downloads/solaris-archive-169194.html 

Download maven:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/maven/binaries/apache-maven-2.2.1-bin.tar.gz
apache-maven-2.2.1-bin.tar

untar in /usr/local and chown -R bin:bin apache-maven-2.2.1

Download ant:
http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi
apache-ant-1.8.1-bin.tar

untar in /usr/local and chown -R bin:bin apache-ant-1.8.1

Download antcontrib:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=36177&package_id=28636&release_id=459052

and cpptasks:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ant-contrib/files/
get the zip file, cpptasks-1.0b5.zip, because the sources in the tar.gz file don't compile

I built this one using mvn package and then copied the resulting jar 
(target/cpptasks-1.0b5.jar) to the ant lib dir /usr/local/apache-ant-1.8.1/lib/

Download subversion and its dependencies from:
http://sunfreeware.virginmedia.com/indexintel10.html

gunzip each download and use pkgadd -d <gunziped file>

subversion-1.6.11-sol10-x86-local
libintl-3.4.0-sol10-x86-local
libxml2-2.7.7-sol10-x86-local

Now you should be able to check out the BlackTie sources:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/apr/lib
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/etc:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/apache-ant-1.8.1/bin:/usr/local/apache-maven-2.2.1/bin/:.
export PATH JAVA_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH

svn co http://svn.jboss.org/repos/blacktie/trunk

Next download and build the BlackTie specific dependencies:
log4cxx, ace, cppunit and xercesc

LOG4CXX
-------
svn co -r 902683 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4cxx/trunk apache-log4cxx
cd apache-log4cxx
I could only build via ant and it was missing org/apache/xml/serialize/Serializer. To resolve this missing class I download xalan (not sure it that was recommended but it worked). Xalan is available from
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/
(I also had to clean out my local .m2 maven repository at one point.)

export CLASSPATH=/usr/local/apache-ant-1.8.1/lib/cpptasks-1.0b5.jar:/usr/local/:../xalan-j_2_7_1/xalan.jar

ant build -Dwith-apr=/usr/local/apr/

ACE
---

The default build of tao ran out of symbol table:
Assembler: IFR_BaseC.cpp
        "<stdin>", line 171566 : Internal: Out of symbol table

I tried removing the -pipe flag (used to make the build go faster)
and it compiled ok:

edit include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU
 and set
pipes ?= 0

edit ACE_wrappers/include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU and
include $(ACE_ROOT)/include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU

When building in tao set the library path:
cd $TAO_ROOT/tao
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/apr/lib:/usr/local/lib

Create and edit <BLACKTIE_UTILS_HOME>/ACE+TAO-5.7.6/ACE_wrappers/ace/config.h to insert the following:
    SOLARIS ONLY
        #define ACE_INITIALIZE_MEMORY_BEFORE_USE 1
        #include "ace/config-sunos5.10.h"

STOMP
-----
Same as the linux build instructions.

XERCES
------
Same as the linux build instructions - but I the Xerces site already
has a Solaris 10 binary so I used that.

CPPUNIT
-------

cppunit on solaris needs a patch:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2912590&group_id=11795&atid=311795

patch -p0 -i solarisfinite.patch 
File to patch: include/cppunit/portability/FloatingPoint.h


PACKAGE DEPENDENCIES
--------------------
Same as the linux build instructions append with a build line of:
ant -Dlinux=true -Dbpa=sol10-x86
