Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to clear the ld library search path within a single linker call. Specificlly, the problem is that I have two libraries A and B, and there's a version of each in two include paths, say /usr/lib and/usr/local/lib. So we've got /usr/lib/libA.so, / usr/lib/libB.so, /usr/local/lib/libA.so and /usr/local/lib/libB.so. Now I want to link against the version of library A from /usr/lib and the version of B from /usr/local/lib. Unfortunately this command line doesn't work:
g++ ... -L/usr/lib -lA -L/usr/local/lib -lB because /usr/lib is still the first location in the library search path when -lB gets used. In the general case I won't know so much about the exact library paths, so let's assume for now that I can't just use absolute paths to each library. Is there maybe a way that I can reset or clear the library search path in between each -l, e.g. g++ ... -L/usr/lib -lA -reset-libpath -L/usr/local/lib -lB ? I'm using autotools and libtool if that's any help. If there's no way of doing that, is there any other technique which will avoid me needing to rewrite a large chunk of our build system's m4 macros to work out absolute paths for every library? Thanks! Andy _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
