cxxlib

Tells the compiler to link using certain C++ run-time libraries.

IDE Equivalent

None

Architectures

IA-32, IntelŪ EM64T, IntelŪ ItaniumŪ architecture

Syntax

Linux and Mac OS: -cxxlib[-mode]
-no-cxxlib
Windows:  None

Arguments

mode   Specifies which C++ run-time libraries to use. Possible values are:
  gcc[=dir] Tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries provided by gcc.
dir is an optional top-level location for the gcc binaries and libraries.
  icc Tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries provided by Intel. -cxxlib-icc is only available on IA-32 and ItaniumŪ-based Linux systems.

Default

-cxxlib-gcc On Mac OS* systems, the compiler uses the run-time libraries provided by gcc.
-no-cxxlib On Linux* systems, the compiler uses the default run-time libraries and does not link to any additional C++ run-time libraries.

Description

This option tells the compiler to link using certain C++ run-time libraries.

If you specify the option with no mode, the compiler uses the default C++ libraries.

Note

For full interoperability with gcc, use -cxxlib-gcc. Do not use the -cxxlib-gcc option if your version of gcc is older than 3.2.

Caution

All object binaries used in a single link must be compiled with the same mode value, whether invoked explicitly or by default.

Alternate Options

-no-cxxlib Linux: -no-cpprt, -no_cpprt
Mac OS: None
Windows: None
