Hi,
I have been scratching my head for a while... to no avail. I have
compiled a simple source file with and without -fno-leading-underscore
flag, and the objects generated seem to have exactly the same names
for all symbols, always having a leading underscore.
What I do:
1- Compile the source underscores.c (see below), with two different
command lines
$ gcc -g -g3 -Wall -Wextra -Wunused -Wuninitialized -Wfloat-equal
-Wundef -Wshadow underscores.c -o underscores.exe
and
$ gcc -g -g3 -Wall -Wextra -Wunused -Wuninitialized -Wfloat-equal
-Wundef -Wshadow underscores.c -o underscores.exe
-fno-leading-underscore
2- Obtain the symbols in each of the objects generated.
3- Diff them.
The result is that there are no differences. The complete list of
symbols is shown below. It is worth noting that the function f1
defined in underscores.c has _f1 as its symbol name.
I do not know how to get rid of the leading underscores in Cygwin. I
have other sources compiled in Linux, and they do not have a leading
underscore added.
Now my problem is that I have a library with symbol names without a
leading underscore. Although the library is for Linux (I do not have a
version specific for Cygwin, which would be the ideal solution, and I
do not think that I could get it; I don't have the sources), I expect
it to work under Cygwin (or at least give it a try), if only I could
get my objects to link with its symbols. Even if I am trying to mix
objects for different platforms, I guess that there should be a chance
to do it by appropriate configuration. The flag
-fno-leading-underscore seemed to be the answer, but it did not work
for me.
Any hints?
Thanks a lot.
