Hi, I compiled a huge application using powerpc gcc cross compiler. When I parsed my .out file, using readelf program, it displays multiple entry for .text section. NAME TYPE ADDR OFFSET SIZE .text.func1 PROGBITS ........ .text.func2 PROGBITS ........ .text.func3 PROGBITS ........ ... ... .rodata._ZTIN10 PROGBITS ........ .rodata._ZTVSt9ty PROGBITS ........ .... .... Certain symbols displayed in text section ( e.g func1, func2 functions) are part of my application. But symbols displayed in .rodata section (_ZTIN10, _ZTVSt9ty,..) are not at all part of my application. I really don't have any clue. Could you please explain the reason why its displayed? Is there any problem in compilation/linking? best regards, Jeffi Edward -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Multiple-entry-for-.text-section-in-executable-file-tp26853585p26853585.html Sent from the gcc - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
