Hello everyone,
I found a link to this mailing list at
http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/gcc.html
but i don't know how to subscribe to the list, so i can't read answers within the list.
I'd just like to see a better documentation for the linker option '-s' in future versions of the manual. The current single-line description is, however, unsufficient. Removing 'relocation information' could be misunderstood as removing 'reloc tables', which would make an executable unloadable, which is in fact not true. I wonder if I could use this option when linking a dynamic library - can applications still find library functions if a lib was linked using -s ? And what kinda symbols are removed ? I still have absolutely no clue what this option is exactly doing, but i'm using it by default..
Have a nice day..
