I am using Mac OS X 10.5 and Xcode 3.1.1.
With GCC 4.0, the size of the debug version of my static library was
~400mb. With GCC 4.2, the amount of debug information increased
dramatically and it is now ~1.2GB.
However, the real problem appears to be with the version of libtool
that I am using. Here are the details:
$/Developer/usr/bin/libtool -V
Apple Computer, Inc. version cctools-698.1
$ lipo -info /Developer/usr/bin/libtool
Architectures in the fat file: /Developer/usr/bin/libtool are: i386
ppc7400
So, it is no surprise that a 32-bit version of libtool would be
failing with this error message:
/Developer/usr/bin/libtool: can't vm_allocate() buffer for output
file: libCore.a of size 1206037468 ((os/kern) no space available)
So, my question is does a 64-bit version of libtool exist?
If so, how easy or practical would it be to get Xcode to use it
instead of the 32-bit version?
Anyone played around with doing this?
Any comments, hints or suggestions would be appreciated.
thank you.
p.s. here are the details on GCC & ld:
/usr/bin $gcc-4.2 --version
i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.2.1 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5564)
