ld problem on hpux 10.20 with egcs-20000124

ld problem on hpux 10.20 with egcs-20000124

[Markus Werle]

Hi!

After a painful week I got egcs-20000124 finally compiled and installed,

but there seems to be a problem with the linker.
Any idea what I forgot?

Yup.  So why are you reporting it here? ;-)

The linker is a separate project.  You didn't even mention which
linker you're using, but it seems not to be GNU ld:

So you should ask for help from HP, not to us.  Maybe you need to
patch your system?

The missing symbols are c++ symbols which I expect to get shipped
with gcc. They all belong to "typeinfo".

So maybe there are some symbols missing in libstd++ or libgcc
due to configuration  errors in gcc - or some I did myself
(the latter for sure). IMHO the error is not in hp ld.

As I can read on http://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html:
"gcc-help is a [...] list for people searching for help in building gcc"

I just mentioned I had a little problem and was seeking for an answer.
The whole installation process for gcc on HPUX is a painful story
(far away from linux' configure-make-make_install).
As I can see at dejanews and in the gcc mailing lists
I am not the only one banging his head against the wall.

Please believe, I do not want to blame the developers of gcc,
but rather ask for a discussion that leads back to a really portable
compiler. I am greatful for the work You have done, especially
the template stuff. Let us use it - even on hpux.

The problem is *not* gcc and the problem is *not* hpux.
The problem is their interaction and all those nasty side effects.
HP will tell me the same answer only with inverse sign.

Again: I repeat my question:
Any idea where the linker should find the symbols?


Best regards,


Markus

It is crashing.  This is always an error.

That's not the point.  I didn't think you were, I just pointed you at
an evident problem that you should attempt to get fixed before
assuming other problems would remain.

I recall having read about a patch for HP/UX's ld before.  Did you
ever install such a beast?

Some of those you mention would be in libgcc, some in libstdc++.
