statically linked shared object

[lrtaylor@micron.com]

What about if you replace -static with "-Wl,-Bstatic"?  That explicitly
tells the linker to link statically (so long as it's GNU ld).  -static
is probably supposed to get translated to something like -Bstatic for
the linker, but maybe that doesn't happen in this case for some reason.

Thanks,
Lyle

Subject: statically linked shared object

Hello,

I've problem creating a statically linked shared object. I'm using g++
(GCC) 3.3 20030226.
First object vidflat.o is created:
g++  -fPIC -pg  -ggdb  -c -o vidflat.o
../../../../../../../../source/app/lib/dynamics/plugins/vidflat/vidflat.
cc

Then vidflat.so is created using keyword -static:
g++  vidflat.o  -static -shared -frtti  -o vidflat.so -L../../../../lib
-l3d -ldl -lm  -L/usr/lib -lglut -lGLU -lGL  -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXt -lXi
-lXmu -lXext -lX11 -lpthread -pg

But ldd proves that this .so isn't linked statically at all:

ldd ./vidflat.so
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4002c000)
        libglut.so.3 => /usr/lib/libglut.so.3 (0x40030000)
        libGLU.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 (0x40067000)
        libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 (0x40101000)
        libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x4015d000)
        libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x401b1000)
        libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x401b9000)
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x401d0000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x401df000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x402ad000)
        libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x402fd000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x403b5000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x403d7000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x4050e000)
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40517000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x4052e000)
        libGLcore.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 (0x40536000)

Using -static worked fine for statically linked application but not for
shared object.
Which parameters do I have to pass to g++ to create statically linked
shared object?

Thanks in advance
Achim
