I am trying to build a C++ shared lib using gcc/g++ 3.2 on Solaris 8. Everything works fine until I try to load it on a machine that does not have gcc installed at all, or has an older version installed (2.95). It complains that the library "libstdc++.so" isn't found (indeed it is not there). So I want to link the shared lib with static linking of the g++ runtime libs. I did this with the following link command: g++ -shared -nodefaultlib $(OBJS) /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.a /usr/local/lib/libsupc++.a The link worked fine but when the program tries to load (dlopen) the shared lib, it fails with: relocation error: symbol __gxx_personality_v0: referenced symbol not found This symbol is in libstdc++.a but it doesn't get copied into the shared lib. Is there a way to force the linker to load everything in libstdc++.a into the shared lib? Are there any resources out there explaining how to build C++ shared libs using gcc/g++ for delivery to systems which don't have gcc installed? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
