I believe newlib is barely a C library, (it was the last time I looked at it) I would suggest you investigate uclibc and see if that will do what you need. (There is a version of uclibc that will do shared libs, but I do not know how advanced the dynamic loader is on PPC.) --Mark ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
