Solve larger, more complex problems with 64-bit application development
|
Sun Studio 10 software is the first Sun Developer tools release to support creating 64-bit applications for the newest AMD64 hardware platforms. Not only can your applications address larger problems, but they will crunch the numbers in record-beating time thanks to the optimization techniques built into the Sun Studio 10 tools. Of course, if you want to create SPARC 64-bit applications, Sun Studio 10 software supports that as well with a tool set that has been increasing 64-bit application performance for the past four years.

Improved Xeon and AMD performance
|
Runtime performance for applications generated for the Solaris x86 platform is now up to 60% faster than prior Sun Studio versions and blows away open source alternatives. The software delivers support for the latest SSE and SSE2 optimizations for Pentium-compatible Intel and AMD chips.
|
|
Technical computing features for the AMD and Intel platforms
|
Fortran 90/95 and Sun's Advanced Math Performance Library are now available for the Solaris x86 platform making it easy to deploy high performance applications on IA32 and AMD-based systems.

Debugging your application couldn't be simpler
|
An intuitive graphical user interface makes it easy to access advanced debugging features. Set breakpoints, examine variables, and navigate the call stack -- all via the debugger's convenient menus and buttons. Slash turnaround time for fixes and achieve greater debugging productivity with the unique Fix and Continue feature. You can even debug multi-threaded, OpenMP code, as well as mixed languages (C, C++, Fortran, and Java) seamlessly.

|
Tune your code to maximize application performance with Studio 10's sophisticated Performance Analysis Tools
|
Assess the performance of your program, from algorithm changes down to hardware system counters, with one tool that correlates your source code to actual machine execution.
|
|
Multithreaded applications
|
You can get the most out of Sun's new multi-threaded hardware by building parallel applications using the OpenMP 2.0 APIs in Sun Studio 10 software. Available for C, C++, and Fortran 95. (Solaris OS only)

|
Write more portable code with our improved C++ compiler standards support
|
The Sun C++ compiler is one of the industry-leaders when it comes to supporting standards. We've improved upon this support in this release by introducing the Template template Parameters feature. Now you can specify a template definition with parameters that are themselves templates, rather than types or values.
