Hi Tapu,

 >Can anyone tell me, what are the C++ specific binutils and how to 
identify it?

<http://www.gnu.org/directory/GNU/binutils.html>

ld - GNU linker: combines a number of object and archive files, relocates 
their data and ties up symbol references.  Usually, the last step in 
compiling a program.

as - portable GNU assembler: a family of assemblers.

ar - create, modify, and extract from archives.

nm - lists the symbols from object files.

objcopy - copies the contents of an object file to another.

objdump - display information from object files.

ranlib - generate index to archive.

size - list section sizes and total size.

strings - print the strings of printable characters in files.

c++filt - a pipe-filter utility to demangle C++ (and Java) symbols.

addr2line - convert addresses into file names and line numbers.

HTH,
--Eljay
