In the following, gcc refers to the C compiler, g++ to the c++ compiler. I'm working on the free embedded c++ library at cxx.uclibc.org. It has recently come to my attention that linking with gcc vs. g++ causes different results. My library is compiled into object files individually. These files are then linked together using either gcc or g++. If they are linked together using gcc everything works well - my test suite compiles and runs properly. If I simply substitute g++ for gcc in the linking step, my applications segfault. I need to know if this is a code error on my part (possible - some of this code is not well tested), or a gcc error (also possible - two different results should not happen). The flags used are identical, and are as follows: gcc -shared -Wl,--warn-common -Wl,--warn-once -Wl,-z,combreloc -Wl,-z,defs algorithm.o bitset.o char_traits.o complex.o ..... Thanks for the insight as to why this is happening. - Garrett Kajmowicz
