Or as close as it gets: freestanding. This is a minimal
|
||
configuration, with only partial support for the standard
|
||
library. Assume only the following header files can be used:
|
||
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">cstdarg</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">cstddef</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">cstdlib</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">exception</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">limits</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">new</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">exception</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">typeinfo</code>
|
||
</p></li></ul></div><p>
|
||
In addition, throw in
|
||
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">cxxabi.h</code>.
|
||
</p></li></ul></div><p>
|
||
In the
|
||
C++11 <a class="link" href="using.html#manual.intro.using.flags" title="Command Options">dialect</a> add
|
||
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">initializer_list</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
<code class="filename">type_traits</code>
|
||
</p></li></ul></div><p> There exists a library that offers runtime support for
|
||
just these headers, and it is called
|
||
<code class="filename">libsupc++.a</code>. To use it, compile with <span class="command"><strong>gcc</strong></span> instead of <span class="command"><strong>g++</strong></span>, like so:
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
<span class="command"><strong>gcc foo.cc -lsupc++</strong></span>
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
No attempt is made to verify that only the minimal subset
|
||
identified above is actually used at compile time. Violations
|
||
are diagnosed as undefined symbols at link time.

|
||
If the only library built is the static library
|
||
(<code class="filename">libstdc++.a</code>), or if
|
||
specifying static linking, this section is can be skipped. But
|
||
if building or using a shared library
|
||
(<code class="filename">libstdc++.so</code>), then
|
||
additional location information will need to be provided.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
But how?
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
A quick read of the relevant part of the GCC
|
||
manual, <a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Invoking-G_002b_002b.html#Invoking-G_002b_002b" target="_top">Compiling
|
||
C++ Programs</a>, specifies linking against a C++
|
||
library. More details from the
|
||
GCC <a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/faq.html#rpath" target="_top">FAQ</a>,
|
||
which states <span class="emphasis"><em>GCC does not, by default, specify a
|
||
location so that the dynamic linker can find dynamic libraries at
|
||
runtime.</em></span>
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
Users will have to provide this information.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
Methods vary for different platforms and different styles, and
|
||
are printed to the screen during installation. To summarize:
|
||
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
At runtime set <code class="literal">LD_LIBRARY_PATH</code> in your
|
||
environment correctly, so that the shared library for
|
||
libstdc++ can be found and loaded. Be certain that you
|
||
understand all of the other implications and behavior
|
||
of <code class="literal">LD_LIBRARY_PATH</code> first.
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
Compile the path to find the library at runtime into the
|
||
program. This can be done by passing certain options to
|
||
<span class="command"><strong>g++</strong></span>, which will in turn pass them on to
|
||
the linker. The exact format of the options is dependent on
|
||
which linker you use:
|
||
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: circle; "><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
GNU ld (default on GNU/Linux):
|
||
<code class="literal">-Wl,-rpath,</code><code class="filename">destdir/lib</code>
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
Solaris ld:
|
||
<code class="literal">-Wl,-R</code><code class="filename">destdir/lib</code>
|
||
</p></li></ul></div></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
Some linkers allow you to specify the path to the library by
|
||
setting <code class="literal">LD_RUN_PATH</code> in your environment
|
||
when linking.
|
||
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
|
||
On some platforms the system administrator can configure the
|
||
dynamic linker to always look for libraries in
|
||
<code class="filename">destdir/lib</code>, for example
|
||
by using the <span class="command"><strong>ldconfig</strong></span> utility on GNU/Linux
|
||
or the <span class="command"><strong>crle</strong></span> utility on Solaris. This is a
|
||
system-wide change which can make the system unusable so if you
|
||
are unsure then use one of the other methods described above.
|
||
</p></li></ul></div><p>
|
||
Use the <span class="command"><strong>ldd</strong></span> utility on the linked executable
|
||
to show
|
||
which <code class="filename">libstdc++.so</code>
|
||
library the system will get at runtime.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
A <code class="filename">libstdc++.la</code> file is
|
||
also installed, for use with Libtool. If you use Libtool to
|
||
create your executables, these details are taken care of for
|
||
you.
