Hi All, Can any one please help in resolving the following issue. I am using a Gcc-4.6 for an embedded target.. When I am running dejagnu tests. There are more than 100 failures which are related to -fpic bash-4.0$ /proj/epdsw1/gnu/lin/bin/zz-gcc /proj/epdsw1/gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/20001012-2.c -O2 -fpic -mno-xl-soft-mul -mxl-barrel-shift -mcpu=v7.30.b /tmp/ccPlsYVr.o: could not read symbols: File format not recognized collect2: ld returned 1 exit status If I remove -fpic option it is compiling without any errors... When I run small program with -fpic option then it is working fine. Can anyone please help me out of this Thanks in advance, Nagaraju
