Re: Is this supposed to work, or am I loopy?


Hi Phil,

: Under sparc-sun-solaris2.8, we can set the shared library search
: path thusly: 
: 
:     % /stuff/pme/Ebuild/bin/g++ -R/stuff/pme/Ebuild/lib huh.cc
: 
: Under i686-pc-linux-gnu, however (sorry about the long lines):
: 
:     24% /home/pme/build/install-2001-01-04/bin/g++
:           -R/home/pme/build/install-2001-01-04/lib huh.cc 
:     g++: unrecognized option `-R/home/pme/build/install-2001-01-04/lib'
: 
: Is there nothing supported under Linux other than using a pair of -Wl
: options?  According to its manual, GNU ld would recognize -Rfoo as a runtime
: library search path setting when foo is a directory, if the driver weren't
: killing it first.

What's wrong with using -Wl, ?  It is only four more characters to
type, and it will then work on all build environments.

   g++ -Wl,-R/home/pme/build/install-2001-01-04/lib huh.cc 


Cheers
	Nick
