linking against old shared libraries

linking against old shared libraries

Post by Vasili Gouta » Thu, 28 Sep 2000 04:00:00



Hi,

I'm developing on Linux and want to link my programs against a older
version of the C lib.
I tried compiling my code using the options -nostdlib -L<path to older
libs> -lc which works,
but I get following warning:
/usr/i486-suse-linux/bin/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start;
defaulting to 08048b40

The binary is not able to run. Linking static works, but the striped
version of it has the double size.

Any ideas how to get it linked against the old libs?

TIA
Vasili

1. linking against shared libraries

Maybe I'm to dumb but I don't know the commands to link against shared
libraries using gcc. Can anyone point me to some information?

Problem is: I have a shared library here but not the static counterpart.
But in my understanding the shared libraries contain the same stuff as
static ones so it must be possible to link against them but how to do
that?
