spect. GCC,
i'm an italian student and i'm using gcc cross compiler to try to compile a .c file for a powerPC target using a solaris host. I've tried to compile by using the command line:

powerpc-eabi-gcc -c - o../../marco/prova3.out ../../c-src/prova2.c

and it correctly generate the obj file prova.o. When i try to generate the executable file, by writing the command line:

powerpc-eabi-gcc -o ../../marco/prova3.out ../../c-src/prova2.c

it doesn't work. It returns me an error. considering that it's able to create correctly obj file, i think that the problem is on the linking stage. It exactly give me this error:


> powerpc-eabi-gcc -o ../../marco/prova3.out ../../c-src/prova2.c
