C++ runtime library compatibility with Redhat libraries

srinatar · 01-28-2005, 08:07 PM

Hi
I have 2 questions:
1. I am shipping a product and it requires C++ runtime libraries like libstdc++.so.5 and libgcc_s.so.1. Can I bundle these libraries along with my product without violating any license.
2. I would like to know if this bundles C++ runtime library can work fine on other linux distributions like Redhat EL 3.0 or Mandrake 10.0 etc. How portable are these C++ runtime libraries on other linux distribuions.

thanks in advance
sriram.

u can surely bundle them if they are licensed in GPL/GNU
which they will be

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
