static-linking

all. I want to link a library which calls malloc() function. However, my target environment is different one and malloc() is supplied as inline-function. How can I make the library's call to malloc() direct to my target environment's malloc() routine? Is it any way to change the exported function name? If so I can code my_malloc() first and export it as malloc() and link the library to that one: #include <my_environment.h> // malloc() is inline function declared there void my_malloc (void) { malloc (void); } More specifically, the library is one from linux distro so it depends on libc. But my

On 'C', Linux, Do I need static libraries to statically link, or the shared ones I have suffice? If not, why not? (Don't they contain the same data?) Yes, you need static libraries to build a statically linked executable. Static libraries are bundles of compiled objects. When you statically link with to library, it is effectively the same as taking the compilation results of that library, unpacking them in your current project, and using them as if they were your own objects. Dynamic libraries are already linked. This means that some information like relocations have already been fixed up and

I have shared object A.so which statically links to libssl.a & another shared object B.so which also statically links libssl.a . A.so & B.so has symbols from libssl.a in GLOBAL scope. I checked this by readelf -s A.so I have an executable a.out which loads A.so and B.so. When a.out terminated I get a double free error in one of the symbols from libssl.a in A.so. Even though libssl.a is statically linked to each shared object, since they are exposed globally is it possible that the same symbol is shared instead of picking it's local copy. What is the workaround this ? How to make the symbols

Alright, I have a really troubling CUDA 5.0 question about how to link things properly. I'd be really grateful for any assistance! Using the separable compilation features of CUDA 5.0, I generated a static library (*.a). This nicely links with other *.cu files when run through nvcc, I have done this many times. I'd now like to take a *.cpp file and link it against the host code in this static library using g++ or whatever, but not nvcc. If I attempt this, I get compiler errors like undefined reference to __cudaRegisterLinkedBinary I'm using both -lcuda and -lcudart and, to my knowledge, have

I am using Windows 7, Code::Blocks and MinGW. I have little to no experience when it comes to compiling/building anything, especially when Code::Blocks doesn't use makefiles. I downloaded SDL2-devel-2.0.0-mingw.tar.gz (SDL Development Libraries) from http://www.libsdl.org/tmp/download-2.0.php , and I'd like to create a standalone executable using SDL2 libraries, but so far I've always had to bundle the SDL2.dll file with the executable to make it work. I've heard that I can not static-link dynamic libraries, so my only option seems to be doing something with the source files using the file

I have created a system that automatically registers function objects (functors) into a map based on the constructor of an global instance. In each cpp file that defines the functor, there's a global instance of the registrar class instance to register the functor to a singleton std::map<int, std::function<...> > object. This is the definition of registrar class: template < typename map_type, typename handler_type > struct registrar { registrar ( map_type& map_object, boost::uint16_t cmd_code, const handler_type& handler ) { map_object.insert(std::pair<boost::uint16_t, handler_type>(cmd_code,
