Cross compiling issues

[Bebe]

Hi all,
  I\'m having an issue with cross compiling for the Z and I\'m beating my head against the wall trying to figure it out.  When I compile a simple hello world program in C++ using stl, I get a binary that is over 3MB, even when compiling in release mode with optimizations turned on.  When I remove all references to stl and compiled the program again, and binary still turns out to be 3MB.  Any thoughts??

Check to make sure you are performing dynamic linking.

Thanks for the reply.
I compiled using \"-Wl,-Bdynamic\", but the binary is still 3MB.

PS, I\'m using zgcc 3.3.1

Have you stripped it? (you say release mode, but I don\'t know whether that has actually stripped it, though I\'d assume it has from the name).

Thanks for replying lardman,

At first, I compiled my program like this:

Code: [Select]

g++ -Wall -g -o hello hello.cpp

Then like so,

Code: [Select]

g++ -Wall -02 -o hello hello.cpp

Then like this,

Code: [Select]

g++ -o hello hello.cpp

Finally, I did this

Code: [Select]

g++ -Wl,-Bdynamic -o hello hello.cpp

And I did this to both code that had stl and code that had non-stl references. All of this resulted in a 3MB file.

The interesting this is that when I used zgcc 3.3.2 to compile, I got a file that was much smaller. My guess is that some of the libs that came with the version of zgcc 3.3.1 were in debug mode.  Oh well, 3.3.2 it is
