Will you pls let me know where I can do it . Can't you just redirect the program's output to /dev/null when you run the program? Or close the file descriptor in your program's main() function? Or duplicate the file descriptor in main() to redirect the output to a file? Changing the standard library probably isn't necessary. The relevant code is in libstdc++-v3/src/ios_init.cc
