- Log ----------------------------------------------------------------- commit 673d8593b7ef274dadbfff97fd641e3c563fc716 Author: Tony Cook <t...@develop-help.com> Date: Sat Apr 9 00:05:24 2011 +1000 check --whole-archive is supported before using it netbsd for pre 4.6 gcc requires --whole-archive to build shared libraries, but this is rejected and not required in 4.6.0. Simply changing the option to -Wl,--whole-archive works on gcc 4.6.0 but fails for the system cc on NetBSD 5.1/x64. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary of changes: hints/netbsd.sh | 10 +++++++++- 1 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/hints/netbsd.sh b/hints/netbsd.sh index d812f60..c64be44 100644 --- a/hints/netbsd.sh +++ b/hints/netbsd.sh @@ -35,7 +35,15 @@ case "$osvers" in d_dlopen=$define d_dlerror=$define cccdlflags="-DPIC -fPIC $cccdlflags" - lddlflags="--whole-archive -shared $lddlflags" + lddlflags="-shared $lddlflags" + # gcc 4.6 doesn't support --whole-archive, but check for it + # if the user chooses a new compiler later, this is pointless + echo 'int f(void) { return 0; }' >try.c + if ${cc:-cc} $cccdlflags -c try.c -otry.o 2>&1 && + ${cc:-cc} --whole-archive $lddlflags try.o -otry.so 2>&1 ; then + lddlflags="--whole-archive $lddlflags" + fi + rm try.c try.o try.so 2>/dev/null rpathflag="-Wl,-rpath," case "$osvers" in 1.[0-5]*) -- Perl5 Master Repository
