I'm not sure how to answer your question, because -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE is not a GCC feature. It is a glibc feature. It causes glibc to change some function definitions to use features that are provided by GCC. As far as I know, all the _FORTIFY_SOURCE features that GCC provides are available in both C and C++. So, please give us an example of something that fails with g++ and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE that you expect to work. Ian
