Okay, here's the situation. I'm porting a large project to Linux. Some of the libraries we have to use were compiled with an older version of egcs (I'm pretty sure it was 1.0.3). So, they expect the libraries (specifically libstdc++) that come with that version of egcs. Okay, so I installed the older version of egcs from Debian 2.0. I installed it by hand so it wouldn't overwrite my current version of everything. I set different path names and all that. Anyway, part of our code, which egcs 1.1.1 handles perfectly, causes a compiler crash for 1.0.3. Hmmmm. So, here's what I propose to do: I've downloaded a copy of libstdc++2.8.0. I am planning on compiling it using the egcs 1.1.1 compiler. Then I should have the new compiler with the old set of libraries.
Does anyone see any major problems with this idea? -- -bob An optimist says the glass is half full, a pessimist says the glass is half-empty.
