Thanks a lot. I did see this define for sparc but on a different arch (linux on AMD) there was a different flag that i had to use. I was hoping that there was something standard. >>What is the architecture for which you need this ? Sorry for incomplete info... its something like this linux AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 248 server SunOS on sparcv9 HP11.11 on ? ( some little endian CPU) Actually what i was thinking was that i could get some (standard) information for the flags to be used for common architecture families I hope i can get it from some gcc header ;-) Thanks Suresh
