I'm having difficulty building the following project using mingw-w64: https://github.com/ArashPartow/exprtk
When I build it vanilla, I get the following: exprtk>make exprtk_test c++ -pedantic-errors -Wall -Wextra -Werror -Wno-long-long -O1 -o exprtk_test exprtk_test.cpp -L/usr/lib -lstdc++ -lm C:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-6.2.0-win32-seh-rt_v5-rev0/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/6.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/a s.exe: ...\Temp\ccOqU8eK.o: too many sections (52426) ...\Temp\ccZewRfk.s: Assembler messages: ...\Temp\ccZewRfk.s: Fatal error: can't write ...\Temp\ccOqU8eK.o: File too big C:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-6.2.0-win32-seh-rt_v5-rev0/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/6.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/a s.exe: ...\Temp\ccOqU8eK.o: too many sections (52426) ...\Temp\ccZewRfk.s: Fatal error: can't close ...\Temp\ccOqU8eK.o: File too big Makefile:50: recipe for target 'exprtk_test' failed make: [exprtk_test] Error 1 (ignored) Adding -Wa,-mbig-obj to the linker options in the Makefile, seems to cause ld to go into some infinite loop: exprtk>make clean exprtk_test c++ -pedantic-errors -Wall -Wextra -Werror -Wno-long-long -O1 -o exprtk_test exprtk_test.cpp -Wa,-mbig-obj -L/usr/lib -lstdc++ -lm Before eventually killing it I let the above run for about 9hrs. During its run ld was continuously consuming one complete core and about ~980MB of RAM. Based on the following it seems that this issue has already been resolved. Is there an extra option that needs to be enabled? or is it something else that I'm missing? https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2014-03/msg00114.html https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2014-03/msg00127.html The project builds error and warning free using GCC and Clang on Linux, msvc and Clang on Windows.
