But, the strange thing is: the linker does not spit any warning like "cannot find symbol xxx (foo.c)". I'm not sure this is the default behavior, but I'm sure I had this kind of output on my Linux box (older version of gcc, though). Also, I cannot seem to be able to pass parameters directly to the linker via the -Xlinker [param] scheme. It doesn't work with -Wl,[parm] either. However, if I try to use the linker directly (i.e. "ld -o foo.exe ..." instead of "gcc -o foo.exe ..."), I do see some reaction to parameters like -M. It looks like gcc is ignoring it... Is anybody else also experiencing this? (using gcc 2.95.2, ld 2.9.4, uname -a = "CYGWIN_NT-4.0 COSTA 22.0(0.16/3/2) 1999-11-23 09:38:16 i586 unknown") TIA, Andre -- André Oliveira da Costa (costa AT cade DOT com DOT br) -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
