I have an Intel 486 running Solaris 2.5.1.  I am trying to install
libstdc++(either 2.90.6 or 2.8.1.1) and neither works.  2.8.1.1 gives
the following failures:

It used to work fine with GCC2.8.1 but now using GCC 2.95.1 it won't.
Ideas?

GNU libstdc++ (as well as libg++) is tightly coupled to the compiler
version; you can only compile it using the particular compiler version it is
supposed to work with.

>It used to work fine with GCC2.8.1 but now using GCC 2.95.1 it won't.

As of 2.95, the gcc sources include the libstdc++ source, so if you build
gcc 2.95.2 from source, you should get a working C++ compiler with matching
libstd++.

libstdc++

[naga raj]

Hi,

   I have ported Gcc-4.6.2 to an embedded target. My C++ compiler is
generating huge code size.

  #include <iostream>
 using namespace std;
 int main()
 {
   return 0;
 }

   If we execute the above program then all the function in the
iostream library are included in the elf as a result size of elf is
increased....


Please help me in solving this issue..

Thanks in Advance,
Nagaraju

You're going to have to use custom I/O.  To start, link with
-Wl,-Map,mapfile to see what dependencies are being pulled in.

Including <iostream> causes global objects to be constructed, so even
though you're not explicitly using std::cout or std::cin, those
streams are initialized and code is run (before main) just because
<iostream> is included.  If you don't need to use it then don't
include it.  If you do need to use it then obviously the code size is
larger if you use I/O features than if you don't use them.

That said, libstdc++ isn't really optimised for embedded systems.
Some configure-time options such as building libstdc++ without
exceptions can help reduce code size, if you don't need to use
exceptions.

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43852 would also help
avoid dependency on the I/O facilities.

Hi Jonathan/Andrew

  Thank you very much for your responses.
  I think I have to select a subset of the C++ standard libraries and
implement a smaller library.

Thanks,
Nagaraju

I have gcc295 installed on my solaris 2.5.1 system.  I had gcc281 with
libstdc++ 2.8.1.1 installed.  I installed gcc295 over top of it.  I
tried to install libstdc++2.90.6 on my system and it gives several
errors during make about the src directory and not finding files.  I
checked the archive and it is fine.  I installed the libstdc++ on
another machine with no problem and one machine did have a problem(same
problem) other than my own machine.  What is going on.   I just used the
commands "configure, make, make install" in that order.  Ideas?

Thanks,
Inferno
