Static compilation of Eglibc
 

Hi all,
I want to statically link Eglibc with my application.But i learned that Eglibc is a shared,which can only be dynamically linked.So i just wanted to know how to statically compile Eglibc so that i can statically link it with my application.

thanks and regards

If you have a Debian or Ubuntu OS, you already have eglibc.
http://packages.debian.org/source/squeeze/eglibc
The static libraries are provided by the package libc-dev.
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libc6
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libc6-dev
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/i...6-dev/filelist
> /usr/lib/libc.a , /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a , /usr/lib/libcrypt.a , /usr/lib/libdl.a , /usr/lib/libm.a
etc. etc.

.

hi,
Thanks for your suggestion.But i am cross compiling it for arm with Linaro cross compiler.In that case how should i proceed.

thanks and regards

AFAIK, the static libc.a etc. will always be created.

But : It's easy to check on your version of eglibc with
./configure --help

.

Hi,
It's there in the name libc.a...I did not see it properly..

thanks and regards
