Solaris Utilities
Tool Talk
The ToolTalk service enables independent applications to communicate with each other without having direct knowledge of each other.
Solaris Modular Debugger (MDB) Guide
This book describes the Solaris Modular Debugger (MDB), which is a general
purpose debugging tool for the Solaris operating system. It describes how to use
MDB to debug complex software systems, with a particular emphasis on the
facilities available for debugging the Solaris kernel and associated device
drivers and modules. The book also includes a complete reference for and
discussion of the MDB language syntax, debugger features, and MDB Module
Programming API.
ONC+
TI-RPC
TI-RPC is a powerful technique for constructing distributed, client-server based applications. It is based on extending the notion of
conventional, or local, procedure calling so that the called procedure need not exist in the same address space as the calling procedure.
Portmap
Solaris RPC-based services use portmap as a system registration service. The rpcbind utility replaces the portmap utility available in
previous releases of the Solaris environment.
rpcgen
The rpcgen tool generates remote program interface modules. It compiles source code written in the RPC language.
CIM
The Common Information Model (CIM) Object Manager is software that transfers CIM data between WBEM client applications and managed resources.
Solais Platform Schema
The Solaris platform schema files, denoted by the use of .Solaris. in their file names, provide the unique extensions that Sun Microsystems has made to the Common Information Model.
WQL
How to use the WBEM Query Language (WQL) and the query APIs to write queries.
appcert
Solaris ABI tool. The appcert utility is a Perl script that statically examines ELF binaries and compares the library symbols used against a model of public interfaces and private interfaces in a given Solaris release.
apptrace
Solaris ABI tool. The apptrace tool uses the link-auditing capability of the run-time linker to dynamically trace Solaris library
routine calls as the application runs. This capability enables developers to examine an application's use of the Solaris system interfaces.

Sun Studio Utilities
dbx Debugger
An interactive, source-level, command-line debugging tool.
dmake make tool
A command-line tool for building targets in distributed, parallel, or serial mode.
Math libraries
A floating-point environment that is supported by software and hardware on SPARC and x86 platforms that run the Solaris Operating System.
OpenMP API
Directives and pragmas for converting legacy Sun parallelization directives to OpenMP, which is a portable, parallel programming model for shared memory multiprocessor architectures.
Sun Performance Library
A library of Sun-specific extensions and features for using optimized, high-speed mathematical subroutines for solving linear algebra and other numerically intensive problems.
Hardware
HCL
(Hardware Compatibility List) - The HCL shows systems and peripherals which are compatible with the Solaris OS.
HCTS
(Hardware Compatibility Test Suite) - Sun provides a free download of the HCTS (Hardware Certification Test Suite) so that Sun Partners and customers can certify systems and components with Solaris on x86 for inclusion in the HCL.
SunVTS
A Validation Test Suite that provides a diagnostic tool designed to test Sun hardware. Its multiple diagnostic hardware tests verify the connectivity and functionality of most hardware controllers and devices for SPARC and x86 architectures. SunVTS also provides an infrastructure for programmers to develop their own tests and run them using the SunVTS interface.
