<p>Here are some of the non-obvious options to libstdc++'s configure.
|
|
Keep in mind that
|
|
<!-- This SECnn should be the "Choosing Package Options" section. -->
|
|
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.57/html_node/autoconf_131.html#SEC131">they
|
|
all have opposite forms as well</a>
|
|
(enable/disable and with/without). The defaults are for <strong>current
|
|
development sources</strong>, which may be different than those for
|
|
released versions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The canonical way to find out the configure options that are
|
|
available for a given set of libstdc++ sources is to go to the
|
|
source directory and then type:<code> ./configure --help</code>

<dl>

<dt><code>--enable-multilib </code>[default]</dt>

compilers. As such, targets like "powerpc-elf" will have

libstdc++ built many different ways: "-msoft-float"

and not, etc. A different libstdc++ will be built for each of

the different multilib versions. This option is on by default.

intend to use several versions of gcc in parallel. In addition,

--enable-cxx-flags='-fvtable-gc -fomit-frame-pointer -ansi'</pre>
|

<p>

Note that the flags don't necessarily have to all be -f flags,

as shown, but usually those are the ones that will make sense
|
|
for experimentation and configure-time overriding.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The advantage of --enable-cxx-flags over setting CXXFLAGS in
|
|
the 'make' environment is that, if files are automatically
|
|
rebuilt, the same flags will be used when compiling those files
|
|
as well, so that everything matches.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Fun flags to try might include combinations of
|
|
</p>
|

<pre>
|

-fstrict-aliasing
|

-fno-exceptions
|
|
-ffunction-sections
|

-fvtable-gc</pre>
