This line in the solaris mode64 ( cc -m64 flag, gives out the
following warning message )

"virvpirw.cc", line 371: Warning: String literal converted to char* in
initialization.
1 Warning(s) detected.



Now our builds are strict and dont allow this warning too in the
building. Can we remove this by any other way.

Two-and-a-half suggestions:

1) static const char* nullStr = "null";

2) Use a C compiler rather than a C++ compiler.

2a) ... or take further questions to comp.lang.c++
