[jira] [Resolved] (LOGCXX-261) DateTimeDateFormatTestCase fails with Sun Studio 11 on Solaris

["Thorsten Schöning (Jira)" <lo...@logging.apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-261?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Thorsten Schöning resolved LOGCXX-261.
--------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

Because we are trying to reduce the backlog of open issues, I'm closing this one right now. The project lacks developers and tries to reduce the variances in the build, supported platforms etc. and has therefore introduced support for CMAKE. This should be used first instead of trying to patch the code base.
