Hi, I'm trying to compile fam-2.6.10 from ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/download/stable/fam-2.6.10.tar.gz
The problem is that fam is a C++ library and libtool is not capable of C++. In the linking step the following command is issued: /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link g++ -g -O2 -o libfam.la -rpath /usr/local/lib -export-symbols fam.sym Client.lo fam.lo -lstdc++ libtool translates this to several commands and this one: gcc -shared Client.lo fam.lo /usr/lib/libstdc++.so -Wl,-soname -Wl,libfam.so.0 -Wl,-retain-symbols-file -Wl,fam.sym -o .libs/libfam.so.0.0.0 Why is not g++ called? Why is /usr/lib/libstdc++.so added to the command line? The correct command line would be: g++ -shared Client.lo fam.lo -Wl,-soname -Wl,libfam.so.0 -Wl,-retain-symbols-file -Wl,fam.sym -o .libs/libfam.so.0.0.0 How can I achieve that g++ is called and not gcc? And how to get rid of /usr/lib/libstdc++.so correctly? I've found the line libfam_la_LIBADD = -lstdc++ in Makefile.in. I guess the fam developers added this line, because libtool was not able to use g++ and they could not figure out how to change this situation. When I remove this line. libtool is not called with -lstdc++ which is also correct, but libtool itself still calls gcc. How to resolve this situation?
