Category: Build Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Zak Kipling (zak-k) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Python interpreter unnecessarily linked against c++ runtime Initial Comment: By default, on an ELF-based Linux system with a working g++, the configure script will choose to build a C++ wrapper for main(). This causes the resulting interpreter executable to be linked against libstdc++. However, the comments in bug #224782 suggest that this is not necessary in order to support C++ extension modules on ELF (unlike a.out). Would it be possible for Modules/ccpython.cc to be used only on those systems that don't correctly support dynamically loading C++ code from C executables? I'm currently seeing this with Python 2.4.1, on a Gentoo ~amd64 system. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v.

If you merely look for a way to prevent linkage with libstdc++, please configure --without-cxx. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1254125&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
