Hi everybody
I need to have a pure static version of GNUCash (64bit Linux)
Why? << explain your need >>
As John told you, gnucash uses loadable modules.
Back in my working days, the systems I maintained had some very large
static modules (gigantic by the experience of most programmers here).
One of the things I did over those years is to make all of those
"pseudo-static" << the first time a module was needed, dynamic call but
then the address where loaded to saved, and subsequent calls static to
that address; assembler stuff.
That meant just as fast running as if static calls BUT a module could be
changed without needing to link-edit the entire program. Until all but a
reserved amount of memory left and then any additional modules called
dynamic. >>
There should be need for those sort of tricks now. Our little computers
are faster than the big mainframes of several decades ago.
