Does gcc's linker provide options to generate a static binary
from ELF pieces (executable + dynamically-linked libraries) ?
If someone would be kind enough to give a command line sample ...
Someone wrote such an ELF swiss-knife: reducebind.c but it
is alpha and only works on Linux.
It's able to only take the needed parts of code within each
library, which is great.
Can gcc's linker behave so ?
Anyway the need of such a software engineering tool is real,
e.g. for all those who want to design busyboxes, make
commercial software portable, etc ... Essential.
Best regards
Paul
