Subject: [Buildroot] RFC: deprecate BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2012 01:38:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <505A577C.1080700@mind.be> (raw)
I've been playing around a bit with the options of the buildroot toolchain,
and disabled BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC. Turns out that this makes it impossible
to build shared C++ libraries, because they have to be linked with a shared
libstdc++.so... Also, it looks like libgcc_s.so is still built, but it isn't
copied to the target directory. So there's a risk that something links against
it and fails to run.
So I propose to remove the BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC option, and instead make it
equal to !BR2_PREFER_STATIC. That will probably still cause problems in some
corner cases, but we reduce the room for error.
Regards,
Arnout
