Brief Description: -I am trying to use a shared library (libxxx.1.2.so) which was compiled on a different machine, with an older version of g++ (no source) -main.cpp/main.o is my test code to use this library. Problem: -libxxx.1.2.so seems to need an older version of libstdc++, whereas the compiler i'm using now will not allow my code to revert to this older libstdc++ (I have the old libstdc++.so). Dump: try #1: g++ -o main /home/jstokes/dco//libxxx.1.2.so main.o warning: libstdc++.so.5, needed by /home/jstokes/dco//libxxx.1.2.so, may conflict with libstdc++.so.6 ldd main libxxx.1.2.so => not found libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0x04a71000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00aa3000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x0080a000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00977000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0095e000) notice that libxxx is not found...weird..but the important thing is the warning given try #2: g++ -o main /home/jstokes/dco//libxxx.1.2.so /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 main.o ldd main /home/jstokes/dco//libxxx.1.2.so (0x00164000) libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x00176000) libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0x04a71000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00aa3000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x0080a000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00977000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0095e000) now it can find libxxx properly, and i don't get the warning..but i don't want it using to different versions of libstdc++ at the same time!! How do i get these two programs to just use libstdc++.so.5?
