[ECOS] static class initilization order

[ECOS] static class initilization order

[Ottawa Guy]

Hi,
I am trying to use malloc function from malloc.cxx
file. Inside that file cyg_memalloc_mallocpool class
gets initilized and there is an initialization
condition on this class.

Is there any gcc any flag I need to set to keep the
proper initilization order.


Right now when ever I use malloc in my code, my
simulator just crashes, even though I am not making
the actual "malloc" call. I figured this is  something
to do  with my constructor.

Can someone please help.
        Mike

If you are using a simulator then you can presumably just break in and
see what the program is doing. You should also be able to put a
breakpoint on the constructor and step through it to see where it is
failing. 

What platform are you configuring for, and what simulator? Bear in
mind that the GDB simulator for most architectures is really there for
compiler development only, it cannot fully emulate the hardware of a
real board.
