Depends on the app. If it's written using only libraries that are
available on both systems, you may not have to change it. For any
decent-sized real-world app, there's usually SOMETHING different that needs
to be changed, though. How much varies widely by app and by system.

Nope. You'll almost certainly need to recompile even if you don't change
code. The exception would be if you're using Java. But then you probably
wouldn't be asking.

The above work _IS_ porting your application to Solaris.
