#124 closed defect (fixed)

libc/gcc: link libstdc++ into the libc dll

Reported by: bird Owned by: bird
Priority: normal Milestone: libc-0.6.2
Component: libc Version: 0.6.1
Severity: normal Keywords: libstdc++ libc.dll

Description

libstdc++-v3 is currently only available in form of a static library. Including this library in the libc DLL would reduce the executable sizes for C++ applications built with gcc / libc.

While the libstdc++ code is GPL, it comes with an exception which I read as being more liberal than even LGPL. So, linking it into the libc dll should be fine.

It turns out we're missing double nan(const char *). Creating defect #125 for implementing that.
