Philippe, Thank you for your clarification!

Hello, Yes, that's true. There is no standard as far as the ABI is concerned so there is no way for a linker to understand a C++ symbol generated by another compiler. That's why commercial C++ libraries are provided with the requirement to use a certain type of compiler (and sometimes a certain range of version since the ABI can change between versions of the same compiler).
