What can be misunderstood about adding --gc-sections to the linker options if -XX is used on the command-line ?

Ha, the way you present it seems to show that you did understand it ;-)

OK, maybe is it time to add a feature request...

Before filing a request, you can already check yourself what happens with
form data if you compile a lazarus form into the library.

Huh, with all the respect that I have for LCL, I was never able to compile a
Lazarus form into library (even without --gc-sections or -XX) .
On the other side, with forms from fpGUI or MSEgui, no form data loosed
while compiling forms into library with --gc-sections.

As far as I know, they don't use FPC resources for this ?


PS: Re-huh, the libraries that I compile do not store form-data (even no
data at all).

Possibly, but this is something that must be checked before implementing
such an option...

Michael.
