Linker options in portind from solaris to linux for mapfile support

phani@tcs · 10-24-2005, 11:22 PM

Linking in solaris with the options given below is working fine.

"ld -Xlinker -M -Xlinker mapfile"

sample code for mapfile
-----------------------------

{

local:

func1();
}

In linux we found the option --verison-script for mapfile support.
But we didnot get the scope of objects as local.

what is the relevant linker options for linux and mapfile format?

Can anyone help me out from this problem.

Thanks and Regards

This looks to me not about porting Solaris code to Linux, but more to convert code designed to be compiled by the Sun C compiler to code suitable to the Gnu C compiler.

As gcc can be used on both Solaris and Linux, and Sun compiler (Studio 10) is also available on both platforms, may be staying with the original compiler would be an easier way of handling your need.

The problem is not with the compiler but with the linker(Xlinker).
