I have an application(a shared library in C++) which uses strftime() function of Standard C library. My application is loaded in Iplanet web server as a plugin. As strftime() function is also defined by one of the Iplanet web server libraries, So the strftime() call from my application is getting its definition from web server library rather than standard C library. In a shared environment where the same function is defined by two libraries (e.g. in my case Standard C library and Iplanet Server library), How can I specify my application to a pick the definition from a particular library at run-time ?? -----Original Message----- From: gcc-help-owner@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gcc-help-owner@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Sisyphus Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 12:42 PM To: arthur; gcc-help@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: How to compile conio.h functions using MINGW arthur wrote: > I have tried to compile some functions in conio.h using and i am using MINGW > and got some error message that told me that there were undefined references > to all of the conio.h functions that i used. > Is there any library that i should specify on the command line? > Please help me. > I did a Windows 'Search' of the MinGW '.a' files for the strings '_cputs' and '_cscanf'. Both searches turned up the following 7 files: libcrtdll.a, libmsvcr70.a, libmsvcr70d.a, libmsvcr71.a, libmsvcr71d.a, libmsvcrt.a, and libmsvcrtd.a. I don't know just which of those you link to ... or if it matters ... or if it's even definite that it has to be one of those files. I'd opt for -lmsvcrt but there's no guarantee that's correct :-) Try a MinGW-specific list if you don't get a satisfactory answer here. Hth. Cheers, Rob
