Dear forum,
I have a problem with linking of a program I have wrote. Instead of giving
you the entire program, which is pretty large, I have prepared a basic
example that you can find attached to this message. The example uses CMake
to compile.
I have three files:
===== LIB2.CPP =====
#include <iostream>
class Lib2 {
public:
Lib2() {
std::cout << "Lib2" << std::endl;
}
};
Lib2 lib2;
===== LIB1.CPP =====
#include <iostream>
class Lib1 {
Lib1() {
std::cout << "Lib1" << std::endl;
}
};
===== MAIN.CPP ====
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::cout << "Ciao" << std::endl;
return 0;
}
The file lib2.cpp is compiled into a dynamic library called lib2. The file
lib1.cpp is compiled into a dynamic library called lib1 and that links to
lib2. Finally, main.cpp is compiled into an executable that links to lib1.
The dependencies are thus:
lib2 --> lib1 --> testing
Now: if I compile the program with g++ 4.5.2, the programs outputs:
Lib2
Ciao
whereas if I compile with g++ 4.6.1, the program outputs:
Ciao
For me this is a problem, as my program depends on the behavior of g++
4.5.2. I would like to ask you if:
1. this is a new feature - in which case, how do fix the problem?
2. this is a known bug - in which case I apologize for asking, but I
couldn't find it in the bug list.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Carlo
