Package: g++-mingw-w64 Version: 4.9.0-2+13 Severity: important Until relatively recently, cross-building a C++ application with "-static- libgcc -static-libstdc++" resulted in an executable that only referenced standard system DLLs (kernel32.dll and msvcrt.dll) plus whatever DLLs you explicitly linked with.
However, this is no longer the case - executables now complain that "libwinpthread-1.dll" is not found (and I did not request a link to it). Only -static makes that go away, but that means that EVERYTHING gets linked statically (if available), which is not ideal. Looking in -dumpspecs output, there's a -no-pthread option to prevent linking with -lpthread -- but that doesn't work, because linking fails: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.9/libstdc++.a(eh_alloc.o):(.text$__cxa_allocate_exception+0xd0): undefined reference to `pthread_mutex_lock' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.9/libstdc++.a(eh_alloc.o):(.text$__cxa_allocate_exception+0x144): undefined reference to `pthread_mutex_unlock' /usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.9/libstdc++.a(eh_alloc.o): bad reloc address 0x144 in section `.text$__cxa_allocate_exception' I guess I'd expect GCC to consider libwinpthread to be part of libstdc++ and therefore also apply -static-libstdc++ to it (or, adding a -static-thread- library option specifically for whatever thread library it links with). This is probably an upstream issue, but it could also just be a matter of configuring gcc/libstdc++ to use win32 threads instead of pthread (although I think that would then remove std::thread support - not an issue for me, but it could be for others). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages g++-mingw-w64 depends on: ii g++-mingw-w64-i686 4.9.0-2+13 ii g++-mingw-w64-x86-64 4.9.0-2+13 ii gcc-mingw-w64-base 4.9.0-2+13 g++-mingw-w64 recommends no packages. g++-mingw-w64 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
