Depending, you could use Java, which is in basic platform in-depended. You can do it in C and compile a version for Sparc and for Intel...... etc etc

Alas you are comparing apples with oranges.

Solaris == operating system
Intel == hardware

Simple solution is to run Solaris on x86.

But do you really mean Wintel? If so are you wanting a thread library that works on both Solaris/posix/unix and Windows?

I suggest you look for a pthreads library that wraps the win32 threading API, otherwise welcome to the world of #ifdef/#else/#endif

Thanks for ur reply..I will try to get the pthread lib to be loaded on the win-intel systems.
