Hi, I am using gcc 2.95.3, and have to continue with this :-( According to docs, there are 2 steps: 1> the object files must be compiled using -fpic 2> Shared library is created using -shared -fpic
Now my doubt is, even if I do not use -fpic option of the first step above, it still works (on linux and solaris)!!! i.e. I compiled the object files using only '-c' option and built the .so using -shared and -fpic. So is -fpic really required in the first step above??? On the contrary, on Xeon(Sun-fire V65X) machine, when I use -fpic in the first step above, application crashes for "throw" statement. And if I do not use -fpic in first step, application does not crash! I am also linking STLPort (ver 4.5.3)and QT(QT-3.3.1) libraries to my application. These libraries were compiled on Pentium-4 machine. Thanks and best regards, - Kiran _______________________________________________ Help-gplusplus mailing list Help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
