I believe libstdc++-static.a that he is trying to link with is part of the XCode solution. Nevertheless, I'm trying his approach (with libstdc ++.a, which is part of GCC). I don't understand the words "Using gcc or ld, prelink the object files into one big object" I thought gcc and ld could only link object files into an executable, dynamic library or an archive (static library). Did I not study the man pages long enough or is he trying to say something else? _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
